Sites
After having created your account you have no Sites. A Site is simply a container for the plugins, reports and settings of a specific website. If you are using our services on just one website, you will probably just create one Site. If you have more than one website, create one Site for each of your websites.
Creating Sites
To get started, sign-in into your account, click on Site Configuration and then on Create a new site.

Site Subdomain
Your subdomain identifies your Site uniquely across all of our customers. Use a subdomain that identifies your company or personal website and please note that the subdomain cannot be changed after having created the Site.
The subdomain is displayed on the provider login screen when users sign in to your website and will also be the entry point for API Access. If your create a test Site, consider appending something like -test to your desired main subdomain, i.e. my-company-test or my-company-staging.
Site Name
The Site Name name is not visible to your users, it only helps you distinguish your Sites - a good name might be the domain name of your website. You can change it at any moment.
Your Website Domain(s)
After having created the Site, you will be able to add deploy our social plugins and services. To increase security, the plugins only will work with a list of domains that you firstly have to specify. This prevents a malicious user from using your plugins on another website as intended.
You have to enter at least one domain. If you specify more domains, please enter one domain per line and feel free to use wildcards (*.example.com). Please note the plugins will not work on example.com if you only add *.example.com to the domains. In this case add both example.com and *.example.com to the domain list.
