FAQ

Common questions

What is domain expiration monitoring?

Domain expiration monitoring watches when a domain registration is due to expire and alerts before renewal becomes urgent.

How does DownCTL know when a domain expires?

DownCTL checks registration data for monitored domains when that data is available, including RDAP expiration events.

Does DownCTL show registrar and nameserver details?

Yes. Domain checks store registrar data and nameserver evidence when those details are available from registration data.

Can I monitor multiple domains?

Yes. Each monitored site can be tracked with the domain signals that matter for that hostname.

Can I alert before a domain reaches a custom threshold?

Yes. Alert rules can notify your team before expiration reaches your chosen threshold.
