In the dashboard:

- /dashboard/websites: https://www.coritan.com/dashboard/websites

Websites holds every domain on your account. You can register a domain with Coritan, transfer one in, or leave it at another registrar and host only its DNS here. A domain hosted here can then have DNS records, load balancers, SSL/TLS certificates, web proxies and a web application firewall (WAF).

## What you can do

### Domains

- [How domain registration works](/docs/websites/domains/)
- [Register a domain](/docs/websites/domains/register-a-domain/)
- [Transfer a domain to Coritan](/docs/websites/domains/transfer-a-domain-to-coritan/)
- [Renew a domain](/docs/websites/domains/renew-a-domain/)
- [Change a domain's nameservers](/docs/websites/domains/change-nameservers/)
- [Turn on WHOIS privacy and transfer lock](/docs/websites/domains/whois-privacy-and-transfer-lock/)
- [Transfer a domain to another registrar](/docs/websites/domains/transfer-a-domain-away/)

### DNS

- [Add a domain you already own](/docs/websites/add-an-existing-domain/)
- [How DNS hosting works](/docs/websites/dns/)
- [Add, edit and delete DNS records](/docs/websites/dns/manage-dns-records/)
- [DNS record types](/docs/websites/dns/record-types/)
- [Import and export a zone file](/docs/websites/dns/import-and-export-a-zone-file/)
- [Set up DNSSEC](/docs/websites/dns/dnssec/)
- [View DNS query statistics](/docs/websites/dns-query-statistics/)
- [Delete a DNS zone](/docs/websites/dns/delete-a-dns-zone/)

### Traffic and security

- [How DNS load balancing works](/docs/websites/load-balancing/), then [create an origin pool](/docs/websites/load-balancing/create-an-origin-pool/) and [a load balancer](/docs/websites/load-balancing/create-a-load-balancer/)
- [How SSL/TLS certificates work](/docs/websites/ssl/), [issue a certificate](/docs/websites/ssl/issue-a-certificate/) and [renew or revoke one](/docs/websites/ssl/renew-or-revoke-a-certificate/)
- [Manage a website's web proxy](/docs/websites/proxy/)
- [Protect a website with the WAF](/docs/websites/waf/)

### Look things up

- [Website settings](/docs/websites/settings/)
- [Load balancing reference](/docs/websites/load-balancing/reference/)
- [Troubleshoot websites and DNS](/docs/websites/troubleshooting/)

A free name under `coritan.gg` also appears in this list once you claim it. [Claim a free coritan.gg name](/docs/proxies/coritan-gg-names/) explains how.

## The Websites list

In the dashboard, go to [Websites](https://www.coritan.com/dashboard/websites). Each row is one domain, and the line under its name says how Coritan holds it:

| Line under the name | What it means |
| --- | --- |
| **Registered and hosted here** | Coritan is the domain's registrar and hosts its DNS zone. |
| **Registered here · DNS elsewhere** | Coritan is the registrar, and another provider's nameservers answer for the domain. |
| **DNS hosted here** | Another registrar holds the domain, and Coritan hosts its DNS zone. |

The **DNS** column shows how many records the zone holds, with **DNSSEC signed** under it when the zone is signed, or **Elsewhere**. **Expires** shows the registration's expiry date and warns when fewer than 30 days are left. **Registrar** shows the registration's **Auto-renew**, **Locked** and **WHOIS privacy** badges, or **Manual renewal** when none of them is on.

Filter the list with **Registered here**, **DNS only** or **Expiring**, or search it by domain name. The buttons above the list are **Register domain…** and **Add existing domain…**. The **More website actions** menu holds **Transfer domain…**, **Claim another name…**, **View domain prices** and **Refresh**.

Select a domain to open it. Its tabs are **Overview**, **DNS**, **Load balancing**, **SSL**, **Proxy**, **WAF** and **Settings**, and **Visit site** opens the domain in a new browser tab.

## Billing

Registering a domain takes the price for the whole period from your account credit before Coritan registers it, so [add credit](/docs/billing/add-credit/) first. **View domain prices** lists what each domain extension costs per year to register, renew and transfer.

## Limits

- An account can host 100 DNS zones, and a zone can hold 1,000 records. When you reach a limit, the error names it.
- You cannot add a zone for Coritan's own domains or for a name under them. For a name under `coritan.gg`, [claim it](/docs/proxies/coritan-gg-names/) instead.
- You cannot add a zone inside another account's zone, or the parent of one.
