Adding a website takes a minute. On Overview, under Website health, select Manage websites. Then select Add Website. Give it a name you'll recognise, and enter its address, starting with https. Below is the plan it goes on. What's included lists its limits, like how many consent choices it covers each month. Then select Add website. Setup carries on from there: a scan of your website, your banner, and one line of code on your site. You can stop after any step and pick up later.

If a step gets stuck

We couldn't find the code on your page yet. Make sure you saved or published the change on your website, then check again. Some websites cache pages for a few minutes.

We couldn't open your page to check. Your website may be blocking our check. Open your website in a private window: if the banner shows, it works.

Your banner isn't set up yet, so there's no code to add. Go back one step and publish your banner.

You've used the websites your plan includes. Choose a plan with room for another website in Billing.

Still stuck? On the last step, select We'll help you install it and we'll walk you through it.
