How do domain alerts work?
Quick answerYou give us the name and your email. We check the name with the official registry every day. We email you 30 days and 7 days before its paid time ends, when it starts being deleted, and right away if it becomes free. Every email has a one-click stop link.
Good to know
- Most owners renew their names. An alert is a chance, not a promise.
- When a name is not renewed, it usually takes 30 to 80 days before anyone can buy it.
- Very popular names are often caught by paid "backorder" services the second they free up.
- We only use your email for these alerts. We never sell it.

Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. You can watch up to 25 names per email, free.
How do I stop alerts?
Click the stop link in any alert email. It works with one click.
Why did I get a "please confirm" email?
So nobody can sign you up without asking. Click the link and the alert turns on.
