Google Alerts - Spam Issue

Have you tried Google Alerts? It is a free email alerts service provided by Google.

If you want to know about the latest happenings over the internet about any particular topic, add that topic to Google Alerts and set the level of email frequency and the type of information you need (i.e. blogs or only from news websites). You will receive regular email from Google regarding the same. As soon as the Google bot encounters a news or blog with the specified topic, you will receive the email from Google with a link to the website.

Please give a try for Google Alerts Service! All you need is a Google Account! Really simple to use all Google service, isn’t? :)

Lets talk about the actual Spam Issue,

I face a problem which troubles me a lot. And I have few questions to be answered,

- All the email alerts are sent via Google’s mail server and it should reach the Inbox of the email account (Gmail) instead it reaches the Spam box. Why?

- Even after marking the emails as "not spam", still some of them are delivered into the spam box. Why?

- Does anyone face the same problem? If so please add your valuable comment.

Matt, what is your comment on my questions. As you are the spam control expert, I really expect to answer my questions and please help us to sort this problem.

Google Tracking SiteLinks, Why?

For those who don’t know about sitelinks please read about it here and here!

Others, please continue below,

Do you have SiteLinks for your website? If so please take a look at each and every link. The links are not directly linked to the inner pages of the website like regular search result instead it is redirected through Google.com. Take a look at the below screen-shot and the mouse pointer tooltip



This shows Google is tracking the SiteLinks. But, WHY?

I have two possible answers for my question,

1. If future Google may enhance the SiteLinks section (Webmaster Tool) through which you can add/remove from a list of pre-selected links (inner pages) based upon their CLICK (traffic) activity.

or

2. Google may require the statistics to know about their SiteLinks experiment.

Do you have any other answer/opinion? If so, please add your comment!

Have you noticed Google doesn’t have SiteLinks but, why? Any clue? ;)
