Custom Domains

By default a status page is served from https://statusradar.dev/status/{slug}. A custom domain lets you serve the same page from a hostname you control, such as status.yourcompany.com.

Plan requirement

Custom domains are a plan-gated feature. They are only available on subscription plans where the custom domain capability (has_custom_domain) is enabled. If your current plan does not include it, you will not be able to attach a custom domain — upgrade to a plan that lists "Custom Domain" in its features.

You can confirm whether your plan includes custom domains on the pricing page (/pricing) or in Dashboard → Billing.

How it works

A custom domain is mapped to your status page with a DNS CNAME record that points your chosen hostname at StatusRadar. Once DNS resolves, your status page is reachable from your own domain instead of (or in addition to) the default /status/{slug} URL.

Setup

  1. Choose the hostname you want to use, e.g. status.yourcompany.com.

  2. At your DNS provider, create a CNAME record for that hostname pointing to StatusRadar:

    status.yourcompany.com.   CNAME   statusradar.dev.

  3. Attach the domain to your status page and follow the verification/setup instructions shown after saving. The placeholder format expected is your subdomain, for example status.yourcompany.com.

  4. Wait for DNS to propagate (typically minutes, occasionally up to a few hours). After that the page is served from your hostname.

Note: Use a dedicated subdomain (such as status.) rather than your apex/root domain. Apex domains generally cannot use CNAME records.

TLS / HTTPS

Serve the page over HTTPS. After the CNAME resolves, a certificate is issued for the hostname so visitors reach the page securely. If you see certificate warnings immediately after setup, allow time for the certificate to be provisioned once DNS has propagated.

Verifying

After DNS propagates, open your custom hostname in a browser:

https://status.yourcompany.com

You should see the same status page content as https://statusradar.dev/status/{slug}, themed with your configured primary color and layout.

If the page does not load:

  • Confirm the CNAME resolves: dig CNAME status.yourcompany.com.
  • Confirm the underlying page is public — a private page returns 404 regardless of the hostname.
  • Allow extra time for DNS and certificate provisioning.

Next Steps

  • Customization - Brand the page with color and layout
  • Setup - Create the page and assign monitors
  • Overview - Public vs. private and plan limits
