SSL monitoring: never find out from a browser warning
An expired certificate shows visitors a security warning and stops many of them from reaching you. FrogStatus checks the certificate and alerts you while there is still time to renew it.
14 days, no commitment. Cancel any time.
How it works
- 1
Add the host
Enter the host name, or host and port if it is not 443.
- 2
Choose the warning
Set how many days before expiry you want to be alerted.
- 3
Connect an alert
Select the channels. You hear about it well before the date.
What you get
Days left, every check
The days until expiry are recorded, so you can see a renewal that did not happen.
Validates the chain
The check fails if the certificate cannot be verified, not only when it has expired.
Warns early
You decide the threshold, for example 14 days.
Catches silent renewal failures
Automatic renewals fail quietly. This is how you notice.
Where it helps
Automatic renewals
Check that Let’s Encrypt or your provider is actually renewing.
Many domains
Keep an eye on certificates across all the hosts you run.
Services other than the website
Mail servers and APIs also have certificates that expire.
Questions
Which plans include it?
Plus and above. Solo covers website (HTTP and HTTPS) and ping monitoring.
What if the certificate is invalid, not just expiring?
The check fails and you are alerted, for example when the chain cannot be verified.
Which port is checked?
443 by default. You can enter host:port for another port.
How early will I be warned?
As early as you set the threshold: the check alerts when the days left drop below it.
