This blog is an experiment to find out how quickly Google Alerts picks up new webpages. In this example, I have set an alert for the term:
Normally auctions take place every six weeks and have about 2 weeks of ad time before the auction ends. I'd like to know how strong a roll Google Alerts might play in people discovering an item for sale.
I'd like to do a second comparison for this term:
There is also a Tory Burch Quilted Flap Backpack in the Feb 7th sale, and I'd like to see if I get an alert for that immediately.
Published at 7:24 AM EST in Israel. Settings on Google Alerts are as follows:
11:56 AM Israel Time 7 Feb 2023
Still no alerts. Added a new alert with settings for "all results" and without the "for sale" modifier.
