Domain name expiry reminders, including .com.au

Not sure who renews your domain? Alert My Business tracks the expiry date and sends you a domain name expiry reminder in time to renew. It is part of the free plan, so your website and email keep working.

Nobody owns the renewal. That is how domains lapse.

A domain is renewed by whoever holds the registrar account. In a lot of small businesses, nobody is quite sure who that is any more.

Picture a plumber who has just won the biggest job of the year. The week before it starts, the builder emails to confirm the start date. The email bounces. The quote link on the website shows an error page.

Nothing was hacked. The domain simply ran out. The renewal notices went to an inbox set up years ago by a web designer who has since moved on.

The fix takes minutes once you know. The cost is the days spent not knowing, with customers who cannot reach you and a job that starts without a working email.

A domain name expiry reminder that comes to you, not to an old address, is what closes that gap.

What a domain name expiry reminder covers, free and paid

Start on the free plan and add more only if the domain matters more than most things you own. Every option watches the same date: the day your name stops working.

  1. Included on the free plan

    Your free account watches one website for SSL and domain expiry, alongside uptime checks every 5 minutes and one full scan. Add your domain once and the reminder is set. It also comes with a weekly digest and a monthly health report.

  2. Domain & SSL Guard

    The add-on built for expiry monitoring of domain names and SSL certificates, including .com.au. Alerts give you time to renew before a lapse takes the website or email offline. Add-ons start from a few dollars a month.

  3. Check your expiry date today

    Type your domain into the free domain expiry checker to see when it runs out. If the date is close, renew first and set up the reminder after.

  4. Your SSL certificate expires too

    The padlock on your website has its own expiry date, separate from the domain. When it lapses, browsers warn visitors away. See how SSL certificate expiry monitoring works.

  5. Looking after client domains

    Web designers and agencies often hold the renewals for every client. Catch an expiry before the client notices it with client website monitoring.

Hear about your renewal before your customers hear the bounce.
