Setting Up Alerts for Certificate and Domain Expirations

An expired domain or SSL certificate is one of the most avoidable, and most embarrassing, causes of an outage — entirely preventable with proper alerting.

Domain Expiration Alerts

Beyond your registrar's own renewal reminders, a separate monitoring service tracking domain expiration adds a redundant safety net in case an email gets missed.

SSL Certificate Expiration Alerts
