What is Domain Monitor?

Domain Monitor is a web-based monitoring platform that tracks domain expiry dates, SSL certificate expiry and website uptime from a single dashboard. The company describes it as an all-in-one domain, website and server monitoring tool, and it sends alerts before a domain or certificate lapses so owners do not have to check manually. A free plan covers basic use, and a paid Pro plan raises limits.

The product started from domain tracking and has grown into a wider suite. It now includes uptime, keyword, ping, port, cron, DNS, blacklist and domain availability monitoring, along with public status pages. The company is registered in the UK and says thousands of customers use the service, including freelancers who manage dozens of client domains.

How does Domain Monitor work?

You create an account, then add a domain on the domain creation page. The platform's crawlers retrieve information about the domain, which the FAQ says usually takes within 48 hours. Once the data arrives, the dashboard shows the expiry date and the latest WHOIS details, including registrar information, so you do not need a separate lookup tool.

From there, the service watches for upcoming expiries and sends notifications through the channels you choose. If a crawl returns an error, the help text says information will likely be available about 6 weeks later, and suggests removing and re-adding the domain after that period. Uptime monitors work separately, checking websites, servers and APIs at set intervals.

Key features of Domain Monitor

The core features are domain expiry alerts, WHOIS lookup and SSL expiry monitoring. Alongside these, the free plan includes uptime monitoring, ping monitoring and keyword monitoring, plus Slack and webhooks integrations. Status pages let you show uptime publicly, with one included on Free and three on Pro.

Pro adds custom HTTP status codes for downtime detection, SMS alerts, DNS monitoring with Cloudflare support, response time tracking by HTTP or IP, cron job monitoring and 1-minute checks. It also includes 5 blacklist monitors and 5 domain availability monitors. Free diagnostic tools, including a ping test, traceroute test and IP finder, are available to everyone.
