Google alerts

[treeman]

Does anyone understand how they work?

If I set up an alert for say, Guildford, for an alert to show up, does something on a website that mentions Guildford have to be changed in some way?

Blimey it's quite round these parts sometimes.
Where is everyone :shrug:

it depends on where you set it up. If you just create an alert from....

http://www.google.com/alerts

You can choose where it watches and it should give you links to any new/updated pages etc. which mention guildford



I've got alerts set up in google realtime (monitors twitter) for anytime our company name is mentioned, it only monitors that section
