|
||||
## ⚠️ Important Notes
|
||||
|
||||
### Rate Limiting
|
||||
- Default delay: 5 seconds between requests
|
||||
- Recommended: 10-15 seconds for production
|
||||
- Google may still show CAPTCHAs with heavy usage
|
||||
|
||||
### Legal & Ethical Use
|
||||
- Always respect robots.txt
|
||||
- Follow website Terms of Service
|
||||
- Use reasonable rate limits
|
||||
- Don't overload servers
|
||||
|
||||
### Best Practices
|
||||
1. Start with `--headless false` to see behavior
|
||||
2. Increase delays between requests
|
||||
3. Test queries in small batches first
|
||||
4. Monitor for CAPTCHAs or rate limiting
|
||||
5. Use different IP addresses for high volume
|
||||

## Quick Start
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Test Before You Create
|
||||
### Set Up Alerts
|
||||
|
||||
**Copy this query and test in Google Search (NOT Alerts):**
|
||||
```
|
||||
"macbook repair" ("Toronto" OR "Mississauga" OR "Kitchener")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you see 50+ results → the broad approach works ✅
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Choose Your Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
- **Want results now?** Use `docs/google-alerts-broad.md` (recommended)
|
||||
- **Want Reddit-only?** Use `docs/google-alerts.md` (may have low volume)
|
||||
- **Not sure?** Read `docs/ALERT_STRATEGY.md`
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Set Up Alerts
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open the file you chose
|
||||
2. Find an alert (e.g., "Data Recovery - Ontario")
|
||||
3. Copy the query block (everything inside ` ``` `)
|
||||
1. Open `docs/google-alerts-reddit-tuned.md`
|
||||
2. Start with **Tier 1** alerts (global subs filtered for Canada - highest volume)
|
||||
3. Copy a query from inside the ` ``` ` code blocks
|
||||
4. Go to [Google Alerts](https://www.google.com/alerts)
|
||||
5. Paste the query, set `As-it-happens` → `RSS feed`
|
||||
5. Paste the query, click "Show options", configure:
|
||||
- How often: `As-it-happens`
|
||||
- Region: `Canada`
|
||||
- Deliver to: `RSS feed`
|
||||
6. Click `Create Alert`

# Google Alert Strategy for Repair Leads
|
||||
|
||||
## The Problem
|
||||
|
||||
Canadian regional subreddits have **very low posting volume** for repair-related topics. Alerts with narrow site filters like `site:reddit.com/r/kitchener` + specific repair keywords return **zero results** because:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Small subreddits (r/kitchener, r/waterloo) have <10 repair posts per month
|
||||
2. Google Alerts only fires on **newly indexed content**
|
||||
3. Over-specific queries (23 site filters + 40 keywords) get truncated by Google
|
||||
|
||||
## Recommended Approach
|
||||
|
||||
### Option 1: Location-Based (Broader Coverage) ⭐ RECOMMENDED
|
||||
|
||||
Use **city names as keywords** instead of site: filters. This catches repair requests across ALL platforms (Reddit, Facebook, Kijiji, forums, classifieds).
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
("macbook repair" OR "macbook won't turn on" OR "logic board repair")
|
||||
("Toronto" OR "Mississauga" OR "Kitchener" OR "Waterloo")
|
||||
-job -jobs -hiring
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Pros:**
|
||||
- Catches repair requests on ANY website (not just Reddit)
|
||||
- Much higher chance of results
|
||||
- Simpler queries = more reliable alerts
|
||||
|
||||
**Cons:**
|
||||
- May include irrelevant mentions of city names
|
||||
- Requires more filtering
|
||||
|
||||
**File:** `docs/google-alerts-broad.md`
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Option 2: Intent-Based (High Quality)
|
||||
|
||||
Focus on **explicit repair requests** using intent keywords like "repair shop recommendation", "where to repair", "anyone repair".
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
("repair shop recommendation" OR "where to repair" OR "anyone repair")
|
||||
("macbook" OR "iphone" OR "console")
|
||||
site:reddit.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Pros:**
|
||||
- High-quality leads (people actively seeking repair services)
|
||||
- Works across all subreddits
|
||||
- Clear buying intent
|
||||
|
||||
**Cons:**
|
||||
- Lower volume (people don't always use these exact phrases)
|
||||
- Misses passive mentions ("my macbook died")
|
||||
|
||||
**File:** `docs/google-alerts-broad.md` (bottom half)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Option 3: Regional Reddit (Original Approach)
|
||||
|
||||
Split Canadian subreddits into 5 regions with specific repair keywords.
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
(site:reddit.com/r/ontario OR site:reddit.com/r/toronto OR site:reddit.com/r/mississauga)
|
||||
("macbook repair" OR "macbook won't turn on" OR "logic board repair")
|
||||
-entertainment -movie -music
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Pros:**
|
||||
- Very targeted to specific subreddits
|
||||
- Clean results (only Reddit posts)
|
||||
- No city name false positives
|
||||
|
||||
**Cons:**
|
||||
- **Very low volume** on small subreddits
|
||||
- May go weeks without a match
|
||||
- Only catches Reddit (misses Kijiji, Facebook, etc.)
|
||||
|
||||
**File:** `docs/google-alerts.md`
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Your Alerts
|
||||
|
||||
Before creating an alert, **test it in Google Search first:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Copy the query from the code block
|
||||
2. Paste into [google.com](https://google.com) (NOT Google Alerts)
|
||||
3. Check the results:
|
||||
- **10+ recent results** = Alert will work well ✅
|
||||
- **1-5 results** = Alert might work, but low volume ⚠️
|
||||
- **0 results** = Alert will never fire ❌
|
||||
|
||||
### Example Test Queries
|
||||
|
||||
Test these in Google Search right now:
|
||||
|
||||
**Broad (should return 100+ results):**
|
||||
```
|
||||
"macbook repair" ("Toronto" OR "Mississauga")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Regional Reddit (may return 0-5 results):**
|
||||
```
|
||||
site:reddit.com/r/kitchener "macbook repair"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Intent-based (should return 20+ results):**
|
||||
```
|
||||
site:reddit.com "where to repair" ("macbook" OR "iphone")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Recommendation
|
||||
|
||||
**Start with Option 1 (Location-Based)** from `google-alerts-broad.md`:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Set up the 4 core services (Data Recovery, MacBook, Console, iPhone)
|
||||
2. Monitor for 1 week
|
||||
3. If too much noise, switch to Option 2 (Intent-Based)
|
||||
4. Only use Option 3 (Regional Reddit) if you specifically want Reddit-only leads
|
||||
|
||||
The broad queries will get you actual results. The regional Reddit ones are technically correct but may never fire due to low post volume.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Why the Original Queries Didn't Work
|
||||
|
||||
The validation report identified these issues:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Too many site filters** (23 vs limit of ~8-12)
|
||||
2. **Too many OR terms** (40+ vs limit of ~28-32)
|
||||
3. **Too long** (1,100+ chars vs limit of ~512)
|
||||
4. **`ALERT_NAME:` marker** was being searched as literal text
|
||||
5. **Over-specific keywords** + **low-volume subreddits** = zero matches
|
||||
|
||||
Even after fixing the technical limits, the fundamental issue remains: **small Canadian subreddits don't have enough repair posts to trigger daily alerts**.

## Google Alert Query Library
|
||||
|
||||
Use these canned queries with Google Alerts. For each alert:

|
||||
- Set `How often` to `As-it-happens`.
|
||||
- Choose `Deliver to → RSS feed` and save.

|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** Each query includes a NOT filter at the end containing the alert name (e.g., `-"ALERT_NAME:Data Recovery - Reddit CA"`). This makes the alert identifiable in Google Alerts without affecting search results, since this metadata format never appears in actual content.

## Alert Validation Report (2025-11-17)
|
||||
|
||||
### Method
|
||||
- Ran `python3 scripts/validate_alerts.py` to parse each alert block and measure risk signals (site filter count, OR count, quoted phrases, total characters, exclusion count).
|
||||
- Flagged any query that exceeded Google Alerts’ practical limits (>12 site filters, >28 OR terms, >12 quoted phrases, or >600 characters) and captured the specific remediation hints per alert.
|
||||

### Key Findings
|
||||
- Every Reddit-focused alert chains 23 subreddit filters plus 30–45 exact phrases, which Google truncates, leading to zero incremental hits.
|
||||
- Queries above ~600 characters or with more than ~32 OR tokens are silently shortened by Google Alerts; most of the Reddit bundles fall into this category.
|
||||
- Non-Reddit alerts mostly pass site/length checks but lean heavily on quoted phrases, which prevents near-match language from surfacing.
|
||||
- Two alerts (`Repair Communities - Discord CA`, `Gov/Corporate Auctions - Electronics CA`) cleared every check, so they can stay untouched.
|
||||
|
||||
### Recommended Replacement Queries
|
||||
The following drop-in queries stay within Google’s limits (≤8 site filters, ≤20 OR clauses, ≤12 quoted phrases) and can replace the existing alerts immediately. Duplicate them per region/device category as needed.
