Your Store Is One Expired Domain From Offline.
Expiry, certificate and DNS monitoring on the domain your checkout runs on, with alerts that reach you before a customer sees the error.
- Renewal reminders weeks ahead of the expiry date
- The served certificate checked before the padlock breaks
- Nameserver and record changes caught as they land
No credit card required.
The Outage That Starts at the Registrar
A store goes down in ways an uptime check never sees coming. The domain lapses because a card on file expired. The certificate stops renewing and the browser throws a security warning over your checkout. A nameserver changes and traffic quietly stops arriving.
Domainyze watches the layer underneath the shopping cart, the registration, the certificate and the DNS zone, so the failures that end in a dead or insecure store are caught while there is still time to fix them.
Certificate Before the Warning
The certificate your store actually serves is checked, issuer and chain included, so a failed auto-renewal is caught while the old one is still valid.
Expiry Before It Is an Incident
Reminders fire on a ladder ahead of every expiry date, so a lapsed card at your registrar never becomes a Saturday the store is gone.
DNS Change Detection
Nameserver and record changes are diffed against the last known zone and confirmed against a second resolver before you are alerted.

The Changes a Customer Should Never See
The domain is where customer trust is won or lost before a single product loads. A hijacked nameserver points shoppers somewhere you do not control, and a broken mail record sends order confirmations and password resets into a black hole.
Delegation, mail and security records are never graded down, so a change to the records your store depends on reaches you as a loud alert rather than a support ticket about missing emails.
Registration and Nameserver Alerts
Registrar transfers, status changes and nameserver moves are read from the registry record, which is where a hijack shows up first.
Mail Record Monitoring
SPF, DKIM and DMARC records are watched, so a change that silently drops your order confirmations does not go unnoticed for a week.
The nameservers for corporate.com no longer match the registry.
The Lanes a Store Turns On
Four monitoring lanes cover the registrar-side failures an uptime check cannot see.
SSL Monitoring
Expiry ladders and live handshake checks on the certificate your checkout serves, with renewal-aware alerting.
DNS Change Detection
Record-level diffs of your zone, with delegation, mail and security records never quietly graded down.
Expiry Monitoring
A reminder ladder ahead of every renewal date so the domain your revenue runs on never lapses unwatched.
SPF, DKIM and DMARC Monitoring
Order confirmations and receipts depend on your mail records. A change to SPF, DKIM or DMARC is caught on the next zone scan, before customers stop receiving them.
Domainyze vs. an Uptime Monitor
An uptime check tells you the store is already down. These are the failures it cannot see coming.
| Failure Mode | Domainyze Us | Uptime Monitor |
|---|---|---|
| What is watched | Registry record, DNS zone and certificate | One HTTP endpoint returning 200 |
| Failed cert renewal | Caught while the old certificate is valid | The browser warning is the alert |
| DNS tampering | Record-level change alerts | Invisible until checkout stops resolving |
| Domain expiry | Reminder ladder ahead of the date | Down before you knew it lapsed |
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions from store owners and their operators.
Do I need to install anything on my store or platform?
No. Domainyze reads public WHOIS and RDAP records, public DNS answers and the certificate your host actually serves. It works the same whether your store runs on Shopify, WooCommerce, a headless stack or your own servers, and it can never modify your registration or zone.
My platform manages SSL for me. Why watch it?
Managed renewal works until it does not, and when it fails the first sign is usually a customer staring at a browser security warning over your checkout. Domainyze checks the certificate that is actually being served and alerts you while the old one is still valid, so a stalled renewal is a heads-up rather than lost sales.
Can alerts reach my team, not just my inbox?
Yes. Every alert type can post to Slack, Discord or an HMAC-signed webhook, so a certificate or DNS warning lands in the channel your operators already watch instead of one person's email.
How many domains can I monitor?
The free tier covers 5 domains, which is enough for a single store and its variants. Pro covers 200 and Business covers 500 for operators running many storefronts, each with its own faster check cadence.
Will this replace my uptime or performance monitoring?
No, and it is not trying to. Uptime checks tell you the store stopped answering. Domainyze watches the layer underneath, the registration, the zone and the certificate, where failures give days of warning if anything is looking. Run both.
