Change the "Website" tool to be a "Domain" tool
Some customers have a domain for email etc but do not have a website. It would be more practical to have the tool made for domains and also track websites if there is a website associated with that domain.

Agreed. The current website tool should be split into three separate tools - Domains, Websites, and SSL Certificates. As others have mentioned, we like/need the registar / DNS lookups for the domain, but domains may not have a website, or may have multiple sites with different hostnames. Websites should be a separate tool since most organizations have an separate outside web developer and/or web host, and those can be different for different sites, so we can track that information per site. I would still like to have the ability to specify to track SSL renewal when adding a website, but if certificate tracking is enabled the certificate should be listed in the SSL Certificates tool. We need to track renewals on certificates that are not tied to one of our domains or websites (I'm thinking of Apple Push Certificates used with MDM solutions as one example), which is why it would be nice to have a separate SSL Certificates tool.

Chad G.: a bit of a dated reply but this 100%. We actually have a custom asset tracking this data right now. Would love to just plug in domains and have the tool scrape data for us.

Chad G. - Agree. A triple-tool would be nice as you've described above. With websites, an optional snapshot when accessed would be nice to give a visual view.

Cannot agree enough. We have a large DNS infrastructure with not much in the name of websites on them.

Might be more fitting for a separate request, but it would be nice to have the company's website field populate into the tool as well.

This is just an aesthetics issue, no? The tracking options cover all scenarios that I've seen.
Renaming websites to domains + removing https:// or http:// from the display name would clean up the look and clarify the website/domain usage.

It would be nice to be able to document DNS records (Cloudflare integration?), DNSSEC status, associated services (website, email, etc.), etc.

BUMP!!! Why so long, no visibility, no activity. This is insanity, for something so basic and logical… no-brainer, should have always been this way…
Low-hanging fruit here!! Please prioritize, expedite, do the needful!

100% agreed. Works much better.

Another good reason for this is the fact that if I have many domain names that point to the same website, after adding them all to Hudu, the expiration mechanism will send many duplicate expirations that relate to the website, not the domains…

Agreed. We're more interested in the domain than the website.
