how do i sign for the domain monitor service if i have already registered my domain with aplus.net?

Answer by: George Kaloyanov, Aplus.Net Knowledge Base Support

Domain Monitor sends you notification via e-mail if any of the following attributes of the domain name being monitored have changed:

• Domain Name Servers - DNS, hosting provider changes
• Registrar  - The domain has been transferred to another registrar
• Status - The domain has been put on hold, lock, etc.
• Expiration date - The domain has been renewed, expired, etc.

Here’s how to sign for the Domain Monitor plan:

1. Start by logging into the Aplus.Net Control Panel at http://cp.aplus.net using your Registration Number and Customer Password.
2. Select the Domain Names menu located in the Buy Services section of your web control panel.
3. Select Domain Monitor.
4. Use the sign-up form to select your billing period.
5. Enter the domain that you’d like to monitor using the Domain Name field.
6. Click the Proceed to Finalize Order button to see a confirmation of the service that you are about to sign for.
7. Finally, click the Finalize Order button if you are satisfied with the billing period and the domain name that you’ve selected.

Note: You may choose to "monitor" any .com or .net domain, regardless of whether you own the domain or not.  

For example: If you choose to monitor “Aplus.Net” and the domain is renewed upon expiration, the Domain Monitor service will notify you of this domain renewal.
