Brand Domain Monitoring for Founders and Legal Teams
Founder, Notify.domains · ex-GoDaddy Director of Education · founder, DomainSherpa & DNAcademy
Your brand domain is only the start. Typos, variant TLDs, competitor names, and look-alikes all matter. One of them could be the next phishing site aimed at your customers, or a competitor quietly preparing a launch. Notify.domains lets you watch every domain that touches your brand and alerts you only on the events that actually matter, without the noise of everything else.

How it works
Build your brand watchlist
Start with your canonical names, then add variant TLDs, common typos, competitors, and any domain your brand needs to know about.
We watch the signals that matter
Status codes, expiration dates, transfer locks, registrant and registrar changes, nameserver and DNS records, certificate expiry, redirects, page title and description, marketplace listings, site-dark events, and blocklist hits. 150+ attributes per domain, 25+ checks a day.
Alerts land where your team works
Route events into Slack, Telegram, a ticket queue, a shared inbox, or email. No single-point-of-failure inbox.
What you get
Own-domain protection
Catch missed renewals, DNS misconfigurations, SSL expiration, and registrar-level issues before they become outages.
Variant TLD monitoring
Know the moment the .net, .org, .co, or country-code version of your name becomes available or listed for sale.
Typo-squat and homoglyph watch
Track a defined set of typo and look-alike variants. See new registrations, infrastructure changes, and blocklist entries on them. You choose the variants; we do not auto-generate a list you did not ask for.
Competitor intelligence
Nameserver changes, registrar transfers, and redirects on competitor domains often signal launches, acquisitions, or pivots.
Multi-recipient alerts
Route alerts to multiple team members so no single inbox is a choke point. Recipients and channels are configurable per domain, so legal and ops do not have to read each other's noise.
Audit history per domain
Every change we detect is logged with its before and after value and a timestamp. Useful for incident postmortems and UDRP evidence. Registry-level transfer locks are worth watching too, since they often accompany a dispute.
Who this is for
In-house legal and brand teams
You need reliable monitoring that integrates with your team workflow, not just an email to one person.
Founders and operators
Small team, big stakes. You cannot afford a missed renewal or a hijacked typo name.
Security and trust teams
Typo and homoglyph watches feed your phishing response. Early detection means faster takedown.

The features behind this solution
All featuresComplete Monitoring
All of the above on one watch: registration data, website health, auctions, marketplaces, and drop timing, at 25+ checks a day per domain.
Website Signals
Watch the website itself for distress. Downtime, an expired certificate, or a redirect to a new brand often shows up months before a name reaches the open market.
Domain Monitoring
Check any domain expiry date, then keep checking it automatically. We read the registry record all day and tell you the moment a date or status flag moves.
