Automated Names.co.uk Domain Renewal Reminders

Every Monday, WebRun opens Names.co.uk, reads every domain's expiry date, posts a Microsoft Teams heads up for anything due within 30 days, and tracks each upcoming renewal on a Trello card so the whole portfolio stays visible.

In short

How do I make sure none of my Names.co.uk domains ever lapse?

WebRun checks every domain in your Names.co.uk portfolio every Monday for anything due to expire within 30 days, posts a heads up to Microsoft Teams, and tracks each upcoming renewal on its own Trello card. It never renews or pays on its own, so nothing lapses and nothing gets charged without a human reviewing it first.

  • No domain in the portfolio lapses without a 30 day warning
  • Every upcoming renewal has its own tracked Trello card
  • Renewals stay a manual, reviewed step every time

Questions, answered

Will it renew my domains automatically?

No. WebRun only reads expiry dates and reminds the team. Renewing and paying stays a manual step you take in Names.co.uk.

How is this different from a single email reminder?

The Trello board keeps every upcoming renewal visible in one place, not just the next one due, so nothing in a larger portfolio gets missed.

What if a domain was already renewed?

WebRun reads the live expiry date each week, so anything already renewed shows a later date and its Trello card gets moved automatically.

Put this on autopilot.
