Which Domain is Monitored?
Blimey monitors a single domain per check to keep things simple and efficient.
Domain priority
Blimey checks your domains in this order of preference:
- Your primary custom domain (e.g., yourstore.com) — This is what your customers use, so it's the most important to monitor
- Your .myshopify.com domain — Used as a fallback if you haven't set up a custom domain
Why only one domain?
Monitoring your primary custom domain is the most meaningful check because:
- It's the URL your customers actually visit
- Custom domain issues (DNS, SSL, CDN) are caught
- If your primary domain is working, your store is accessible to customers
Changing the monitored domain
The monitored domain updates automatically when:
- You sync your domains from the Settings page
- Your primary domain changes in Shopify
- Shopify sends a domain update webhook
If you want to change which domain is monitored, update your primary domain in your Shopify admin and then sync domains in Blimey.
