Google Alerts lets you receive email notifications regarding topics you care most about on the internet, without having to actively search for them. Set up an alert for every time a topic, word, or phrase shows up in Google Search.
What Is Google Alerts?
Google Alerts is a way to stay on top of things that matter most to you, without having to do any of the legwork of searching around the internet.
Whenever a webpage that contains the search term you created an alert for shows up in Google Search, you’ll receive an email containing a list of the mentions. For example, if you set an alert for “Pixelbook,” any time someone writes an article or mentions a Pixelbook, you’ll get a Google Alert sent to you.
You can create an alert for almost anything on the internet. Want to know if someone is talking about you? Want customized alerts on jobs in your area? Set up an alert and let Google do the rest.
Note: You will need a Google Account to use Google Alerts.
How to Set Up a Google Alert
Fire up your browser and head on over to Google Alerts, ensuring that you’re signed in to your Google account. In the text filed provided, type the word or phrase you want to create an alert for and then click the “Create Alert” button.
The text box works just like it does when you search Google. To get a more refined search, try to be as specific as possible. Otherwise, you may end up with thousands of irrelevant notifications.
