Okay Terrylynn, I've booked marked this and I'm going to do it right after I clean out my garage tomorrow.

I agree. It is a very useful service! It is a great way to stay on top of things.

It was brought to my attention earlier and it escaped my mind. Thanks for bringing it to my attention again.

I have set up google alerts, but I am not sure what that means...I have not quite figured out how this works..I know that it's a good thing...

Terrylynn, I use Google Alerts for my name and company name. It's always a good feeling to know the "Google Juice" is working. Thanks.

Posted by Michael Setunsky (Michael's Commercial LLC) about 1 year ago

Great post, TerryLynn.  I too have my alerts set up with Home Staging Atlanta as well as my company name.  It's a great way to see what hitting Google.

Kirk, I know. Whatever we can do to help the awareness is a good thing.

Susan, clean the garage!!!  Oh my goodness.  Glad I'm not there, I'd want to help and perhaps get some treasures for staging, but then my garage is overflowing already.

Those alerts are good.  I get alerts on Julia Maher, the travler in China; as well as Julia Maher, the rock singer...no, they're not all me!  But I also get alerts on any Staging article published in CT (none since I started the alerts).  Julie

Hi Terrylynn, I have had google alerts for a good while.. I have them for name, business name and many other key words for staging and our other business - vacation rentals in the Smokies.. It's amazing what pops up - a lot that does not apply.. I was found by someone from NC while she was in the Phillipines(I think). She had an alert for a town in NC and I came up so she commented on my AR blog..  God bless,

Posted by Cheryl Gilliam Home Staging-Hickory NC (Just Heavenly Decor & Design) about 1 year ago

I too signed up for google alerts awhile back; I'm so glad you wrote this because I'm sure there are other key words I could be using. I'll be checking back....

Posted by Ronelle Schroeder-Hill about 1 year ago

the more specific the better or you will really get a lot of stuff that have nothing to do with you.

With our company Re$ale Design & Home Staging we get alerts for anything to do with  resale and ale. That $ sign just throws everything off.

Posted by Kathleen Lordbock Keller Williams Realty Brainerd Lakes ( KW REALTOR/Staging & Short Sale Specialist) about 1 year ago

I have mine set up for Atlanta Home Staging but never thought about setting it up for my company name...hhhmmm, something to consider.

Those key words pick up a lot of irrelevant posts because of the word 'staging' but it's also brought quite a few posts to my attention that I may not have otherwise picked up on.  It also lets me know if my posts are being picked up because those are key words I want to be found under.

Posted by Abby Reilly, Staten Island Home Stager (ALR Home Staging and Showcasing, LLC) about 1 year ago

TerryLynn, Very true. I did this about a month ago and it's amazing to see what pops up about my name. Most of the times it is not related to me, but it still interesting.

Hope your involvement on activerain means you get TONS of alerts...and TONS of business!

Julie, well hope you are having as much fun as your counterpart in parts unknown.

Cheryl, NC to Phillipines to AR to YOU.  Love that route.  Never know how people will find us?

 

Posted by Terrylynn Fisher, Realtor Staging Consultant, EcoBroker, CRS, Etc. (Diablo Realty - BuyStageSell.com) about 1 year ago

Terrylynn, I sure wish I had read this earlier, I was surprised to learn many people aren't aware of this......and they need to be!  I could have directed them here...

Posted by Carole Provenzale Owner, Feng Shui Long Island & New York (Feng Shui Long Island & New York City) about 1 year ago

Brandon - I know, and just at your computer everyday is what you need to know about.  Sometimes that's a good thing, huh?  Other times we get lured away from the business at hand. 

Trunda - so here's your reminder yet again.  Signed up yet?

Konnie, you'll soon be a believer, as you'll see yourself growing out there on the wwweb

What a surprise to see my face on your post Terrylynn . Funny how 2 years ago I had no idea what a blog was , or google or anything like that. I have come a loooong way! Thank you for passing this info to all our peers. Thanks Terry !

I get mine daily. It even alerts me if someone else has posted something I've written too, which is priceless!

Posted by Karen Otto, Home Stager, Plano, TX 469)964-0516 www.homestarstaging.com (Home Star Staging) about 1 year ago

Terrylynn,

Great recommendation.  I just signed up for Google alerts about a week ago and enjoy getting the daily emails.  So far what I have seen is my own posts but I guess that is the point of it.  It is amazing what GOOG can do.... we are playing catch-up in the tech land but hey, it is never too late and we have made a lot of progress and growth in the last couple of months !

Posted by Christopher and Stephanie Somers - Realtors - Philadelphia Real Estate (Owner - RE/MAX Affiliates) about 1 year ago

Terrylynn, I hope it's ok that I put this link up in my post comments on Plagarism.  I'm thrilled that you wrote about it because I wasn't aware so many people were unfamilliar with it!

Posted by Carole Provenzale Owner, Feng Shui Long Island & New York (Feng Shui Long Island & New York City) about 1 year ago

Terrylynn, thanks so much for the info, we are going to set up Google Alerts today.

Posted by Missoula Real Estate By Kevin & Monica Ray (Access Realty) about 1 year ago

Donna, THANKS would love to see how it all works and getting more notice is always a good thing.  Thank you. 

Carole, no problem at all, my pleasure. 

Posted by Terrylynn Fisher, Realtor Staging Consultant, EcoBroker, CRS, Etc. (Diablo Realty - BuyStageSell.com) about 1 year ago

Terrylynn:  Thanks for the tip!  I just added a few terms on my Google Alert!  I didn't know that was a feature. :-)

Posted by Michelle Aarnes (Elite Redesign) about 1 year ago

Michelle, my pleasure, it's actually kind of fun once you get the hang of it,  huh?

Fernando, my pleasure, you know we're some of your biggest fans.

Done, now I'll sit back and see what googles up! Thanks

Posted by Wendy Timmons - Temecula Home Stager (The Real Estate Stagers Temecula,CA) about 1 year ago

Great tip ,thanks I wonder if Google canada has an alert post,have to check it out  

Posted by J-M (Jame) Nijs (House Flanders, European Style & Flair) about 1 year ago

I am and just had to send a not so nice email to a plagiarist.  After Google alerted, I followed up w/www.copyscape.com

 

Posted by Julea Joseph (Reinventing Space) about 1 year ago

Angela, I know it's kind of an adventure, huh?

Posted by Terrylynn Fisher, Realtor Staging Consultant, EcoBroker, CRS, Etc. (Diablo Realty - BuyStageSell.com) about 1 year ago

Wendy, no problem, it was fun and an interesting search and nice to have the stuff coming up being truly our stuff, rather than an abuse.  It's better for business.

Posted by Terrylynn Fisher, Realtor Staging Consultant, EcoBroker, CRS, Etc. (Diablo Realty - BuyStageSell.com) about 1 year ago

Great tip. I'll have to look into that!

Posted by Susan Deering (Beautiful Spaces) about 1 year ago

I did sign up and it is so interesting what comes up -- thanks for sharing this!

Thanks for the info.  Good to know about this.

Posted by Lisa Roy (SPACELiFT HOME STAGING, Greater Vancouver) about 1 year ago

Susan, you'll like seeing yourself in print in addition to finding out that no one is plagerizing your writing.

Margaret, I know.  You are most welcome.

Lisa, Yes, hoping to see you in Portland tomorrow.

Posted by Terrylynn Fisher, Realtor Staging Consultant, EcoBroker, CRS, Etc. (Diablo Realty - BuyStageSell.com) about 1 year ago

Terrylynn -

Thanks for the great info. I just signed up. Very helpful, as usual.

Mr Jean Marie, thinking they do, Canada is often a step ahead of us.  SO...what did you find out?

Posted by Terrylynn Fisher, Realtor Staging Consultant, EcoBroker, CRS, Etc. (Diablo Realty - BuyStageSell.com) about 1 year ago

This is what I love about Active Rain!  Where else would I learn these things??There is so much out there!

Thanks Terrylynn!

Allegra - You are most welcome.  THANKS so much for your comment.

Posted by Terrylynn Fisher, Realtor Staging Consultant, EcoBroker, CRS, Etc. (Diablo Realty - BuyStageSell.com) about 1 year ago

True, it's amazing who picks you up or where info. about you is found.  It's almost a little scary that we have so much exposure.

Posted by Cindy Bryant~Houston's Home Staging & Professional Home Stagers~RVP RESA~ASHSR (Redesign Etc.~Specialist in Staging Vacant Properties.) about 1 year ago

Cindy, yes it's pretty scarey actually.  Everything we say is just out there in the world.  And then we have to police it to be sure it's not stolen?  Something wrong with that picture.
