Use Google Alerts to Monitor your Name

If you regularly Google your name, instead of having to manually go search for your name on Google you can create a Google Alert. A Google Alert is an email update that is sent to you when there are new Google results for your keywords. So, for example, you can setup a Google Alert to automatically email you either once a week, once a day, or every time there are new results for your name. This takes less than a minute to setup, and will save you time during your day. You also have the option to select which type of alerts you wish to receive. The options are News, Blogs, Web, Video, Groups or Comprehensive. I always opt for Comprehensive so I am sure not to miss out on anything!
