How to Set Up Google Alerts

One of the things I do with most of my clients is help them set up Google Alerts.

There are a number of reasons that Google Alerts are useful and it varies by client however these are the most common reasons a business would use them:

• to monitor news on a topic related to the business
• to keep current with industry related topics
• to find out what your competitors are doing
• to see who is writing about you, your business or your product(s)

Below is a short screencast I created that will show you how to set up Google Alerts. Since a Google Account is necessary, the first screencast shows how to set that up.

If you find these short screencasts useful you may want to join The Savvy Seller's Facebook Page where other screencasts will be posted on a regular basis.

Please let me know what topics you'd like to learn about in that format too!
