Google Alerts

[rgraham666]

I've got some Google Alerts set up, to track the activity of my e-books in cyberspace.

And lately I've been getting no traffic at all according to the alerts. Which I know isn't right. I've had that review go up earlier this week. I know that Fictionwise and my publishers websites are being hit.

But Google Alerts doesn't find them.

Here's how I have one alert set up.

"Gillian's Place" "Aspen Mountain Press" "Rob Graham"

Name of the book, my publisher and my name. I should be getting some action.

Can any of the more tech savvy AHers help me out?

Thanks in advance.

What KIND of alert do you have set, Rob? News, web, or blog? They all function differently.

ETA: And check your SPAM folder.

Hmm. Good question. I'll have to check. Thanks.

I do check my Spam folder a couple of times a day. Nothing there either.

Thanks for the advice, imp.

Oops.

It helps when I spell the words properly. "Gillian's Place" had three 'l's in it. My eyes are so bad I couldn't see that until it leaned close.

And imp? I've got all my alerts set to 'Comprehensive'.
