I’ve created a short video on how to Create A Google News Alert.

Google Alerts are email updates of the latest relevant Google results (web, news, etc.) based on your choice of query or topic. This is a great way to keep up on industry trends, find content to blog about, or find blogs to comment on for backlinks.

Some of the ways you can use Google Alerts include:

• monitoring a developing news story
• keeping current on a competitor or industry
• getting the latest on a celebrity or event
• keeping tabs on your favorite sports teams

Take a look at the video, then create some Google News Alerts. If you found this helpful, please feel free to leave a comment below.
