We called it DomainDash, but forgot to build the dashboard! Just shipped a fix.

When I launched DomainDash three weeks ago, the sites page was a row-based table — clean, but more inbox than dashboard. A few said (and a couple of paying users) the same thing in nicer words.

The rebuild is live. Three changes:

  • Card grid replaces the row-based table. Each site gets its own card with favicon, domain, current status, and a sparkline of recent response times. The right shape for "I have many small things and want to see all of them at a glance."

  • "All sites" aggregate card, top-left. Total sites, anything currently down or slow (red/amber if non-zero), aggregate uptime % over the period. The room-temperature read in a single glance instead of scanning rows.

  • A watch list on the aggregate card. The bit I'm most pleased with. When something needs attention, the card surfaces up to three concerns in plain English — "SSL on example.com expires in 3 days," "redactr.io has been Slow for the last 2 hours," "DNS on api.acme.com is down" — with a "+N more" link if there are others. Turns the dashboard from a status display into a "what should I do today" list, which is closer to the actual job most DomainDash users are doing.

Full write-up with before/after screenshots is on the changelog: https://domaindash.io/updates/sites-dashboard-redesign-2026-05-12/

If you've been kicking the tyres on DomainDash, would love to know whether the watch list surfaces the actual things you'd want to know about. If it's noisy or missing something obvious, that's the bug worth hearing about.

Free tier still covers 1 site, code NOTAGAIN still gets you a free month of Pro if you want to point it at more.
