Add Websites

 

    • Your first step is to add websites to cWatch so you can activate protection and use the content delivery network (CDN).
      • The number of sites you can add depends on your license.
      • Once added, you can configure malware scanning, threat monitoring, CDN, and backup settings for each site. See the next section, Configure your Website  for more details.

          Add a new domain

          • Login to cWatch at https://login.cwatch.comodo.com/login with your Comodo account credentials.

          The cWatch dashboard shows any existing sites as tiles. New users should only see the ‘Add New Site’ tile.

          • Click the 'Add New Site' tile or the 'Add Site' button at top-right:



           

          First, enter the domain you want to add:




          The wizard has three steps:

          • Step 1 - Register your website
          • Step 2 - Select License

          • Step 3 - Finalization

          Step 1 - Register your website

          • Enter the domain name of the site you want to register. Do not include 'www.' at the start.


          • Click 'Continue Setup' to move to the next step.
           

          Step 2 - Select License


          Next, choose the license you want to apply to the site.

          • cWatch features vary according to license type.
          • The drop-down lists all licenses that you have purchased.
          • Choose the license you want to apply to the site then click ‘Finish’:



          Step 3 - Finalization


          The final stage is automatic - cWatch will provision your site:




          You will see the following message when the process is complete:




          The next sections cover how to enable protection and configure your sites.

          • Click 'Get Started' to open the site's 'Overview' page
          • The overview page lets you configure malware and vulnerability scans, firewall rules, CDN settings, and more.

          Note:

          • cWatch auto-generates a CNAME DNS record for the website you just added.
          • You need to add this record to the DNS entry for your domain. This will activate the content delivery network (CDN) on the site.
          • View the CNAME record:
          • Select a website in the drop-down at top-left of the dashboard
          • Select the 'DNS' tab (or click the hamburger button and select 'DNS')
          • The CNAME record is shown under 'DNS'
          • Your web host may be able to help you add the CNAME. Guidance is also available at https://support.google.com/a/topic/1615038?hl=en.

          Tip: You can skip this step for now and add the CNAME to DNS later. See DNS Configuration for help with this.

           

          • A basic website scan will run on the site immediately after it has been added. This is a first-level check for threats and requires no configuration. Any discovered vulnerabilities are shown in the results at the end of the scan. See 'Website Scans' for more information about this.
