    Put in a phrase such as "your name winner" and "your name" ( I do both searches as they bring different result)s and you will receive alerts via email when google find it, be warned it finds one that are very old sometimes months after you start to receive them, so dont get excited

    Never knew how to do this either, was just manually searching now and again. Thanks for this, set it up now :D

    I set up mine and it's sending me alerts about other people with the same name as me but a different spelling, i.e. they aren't me. How can you get it to alert you to the exact spelling of your name?

    You cant its like any search it will bring up exact and then close to terms and spellings.
    I get a list of people and also becaue my surname is like a christian name I get lots of variations and if the two name s are mentioned on a page.

    Its a help to alerting for wins and ha been pretty useful.

    Also another way to get a good google search (not alerts just in Google)you can do yourself is to put your name in like this "Joe Bloggs" winner.

    The speech marks make it a little precise to finding winning details but again it will show other spellings eg Jo Bloggs, Joan Bloggs etc.

    you get a better more accurate result if you seach like this

    "Joe Bloggs" winner, then it will only give actual joe bloggs options rather than lots of Bloggs or Joes by themselves
