Domain monitoring for registration, WHOIS, and portfolio oversight
Track domain registration and renewal dates with WHOIS-driven reminders, and pair them with SSL certificate monitoring so DNS and HTTPS do not fail together. Built for agencies and operators who juggle many domains—not a single renewal sticky note.
For registrar expiry timelines and redemption risk, see Domain expiry alerts & redemption risks.
Combine registration dates with HTTPS certificate expiry and TLS health: SSL certificate expiry alerts · SSL/TLS monitoring — HTTPS & chain health.
What domain monitoring shows in your dashboard
If a domain expires, DNS can stop resolving — taking down sites, email, and auth flows tied to that name. Redemption periods add cost and stress. Advance warnings give you time to renew with your registrar calmly.
What we monitor
SitePuls reads expiry information via WHOIS on a schedule and surfaces upcoming dates in your dashboard next to other incidents — not buried in registrar emails.
Agencies and multi-domain teams
Freelancers and agencies juggling dozens of client domains benefit from centralized reminders. Assign alerts to the person who actually has registrar access.
Avoid accidental expiration
Auto-renew helps but isn’t foolproof — cards fail, accounts drift, handoffs happen. Monitoring adds a backstop when billing and ownership change hands.
What you can verify with SitePuls here
- Domain monitors track registrar expiry dates and days remaining for each hostname you add.
- Manage many business or client domains in one workspace with separate monitors per hostname.
- Expiry warnings fire through your alert contacts before DNS or sites go dark.
Where incident alerts can go
- Email addresses saved as alert contacts receive messages when incidents open or resolve (according to your notification settings).
- Telegram notifications via the SitePuls bot after you link a chat to an alert contact (including the bot /start flow for pending contacts).
- HTTPS webhooks that receive JSON with event type, monitor identifiers, status, timestamp, optional incident id, and a short message for generic integrations.
- Slack-compatible incoming-webhook formatting: alert contacts can use a dedicated mode so payloads match Slack-style incoming webhook expectations.
Alerts that fit your runway
Configure reminders at 30, 14, and 7 days (or tune to your process) so procurement has time to approve renewals.
Works with SSL monitoring
Domains and certificates expire independently. Track both so neither undermines the other.
Related monitoring
Pair domain expiry with DNS monitoring to catch record drift, and website monitors to see user-visible impact if something slips.
Setup
Enter the domain, choose reminder timing, and connect email or Telegram contacts. SitePuls keeps polling WHOIS data so dates stay current.
Frequently asked questions
Why should I monitor domains?
Domain monitoring helps you catch expiry, renewal and DNS risks before a business or client domain goes offline.
Does SitePuls help with domain renewal alerts?
Yes. SitePuls can remind your team before important domain renewal deadlines.
Who is domain monitoring for?
It is useful for founders, agencies, freelancers and teams managing multiple client or business domains.
Does SitePuls renew domains for me?
No. SitePuls only watches expiry dates and sends alerts. Renewals still happen through your registrar or DNS provider.
Can I monitor many domains?
Yes — add each domain you care about and organize them with naming or tags so client work stays clear.
How accurate is WHOIS data?
Registries update on their own cadence. SitePuls refreshes periodically; if a date moves after a renewal, the monitor reflects the new expiry on the next successful lookup.
What about privacy-protected WHOIS?
SitePuls relies on public registry data available to our lookups. If privacy hides fields, results depend on what the registry still exposes.
Should I also monitor DNS?
Yes. DNS issues can break services even when the domain is paid up — combine domain expiry with DNS record monitoring for fuller coverage.
