 Cert Spotter can also notify users of bygone SSL certificates, which are SSL
 certificates that outlived their prior domain owner's registration into the
-next owners registration. To detect these certificates add an issued_before
+next owners registration. To detect these certificates add a valid_at
 argument to each domain in the watchlist followed by the date the domain was
 registered in t he following format YYYY-MM-DD. For example:
-example.com issued_before:2014-05-02
+example.com valid_at:2014-05-02
 
 The optional -bygonessl flag will cause Cert Spotter to only match bygone SSL
 certificates.
