Email notifications from Google Webmaster Tools

Dear Webmaster Tools user,

We know that having a healthy and well-performing website is important to you. To keep you informed about your site's status Webmaster Tools will now automatically send you a notification email if there are critical or important issues that we detect with your site.

We'll only send you email for issues that we think have significant impact on your site's health or search performance which have clear actions that you can take to address. For example, we'll email you if we detect malware on your site or see a significant increase in errors while crawling your site.

For most sites these kinds of issues will occur rarely. If your site does happen to have an issue we cap the number of emails we send over a certain period of time to avoid flooding your inbox.

If you don't want to receive any email from Webmaster Tools you can change your email delivery preferences at https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/preferences.

We hope that you find this change a useful way to stay up-to-date on critical and important issues regarding your site's health.

Magic Black Box. With this plugin, you can get
backlinks almost on auto-pilot.

but it's well worth it. Rather than taking a bucket
of water each time, wouldn't you better build a
pipe once and have of constant flow of backlinks?

Changes to the Amazon Associates Operating Agreement

Dear Amazon Associate,

This email serves to notify you of some changes to the Amazon Services LLC Associates Operating Agreement, https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/associates/agreement, which governs your participation in the Amazon Associates Program across U.S. Amazon sites including amazon.com, endless.com, smallparts.com site, and myhabit.com. All changes are effective February 2, 2012.

One update worth highlighting entails Amazon changing the MyHabit.com attribution session window from 24 hours to 30 days. This longer attribution session window better supports the 72-hour period of time that products are available for sale on a flash sales site, allowing you to gain added benefit by linking to MyHabit.com. There is no change to the attribution session window for other Amazon sites. See the MyHabit FAQs, https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/associates/help/t54 for more information.

Click on the link, https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/associates/help/operating/compare, to view a summary of the Operating Agreement changes.

Important Update (This Affects Your Account, Please Read...)

Dear Fellow Monkee,

First, we would like to apologize for the missing reports
in your Reports section. The SocialMonkee Reports database
leaked and unfortunately our web host (iWeb) was not able
to retrieve the missing data.

We're sincerely sorry for the inconvenience caused, and
you can be assured that we're taking the necessary steps
so this doesn't happen again. All reports and feeds of
future submissions will be safe.

Only the past reports are missing. The links are still on
the sites, but the reports are no more. The good news is
that because of this data leak you can now resubmit URLs
you already submitted in the past.

Please note - All current and past URL submissions are
still on the bookmarking sites, it is only the reports you
see that were lost, but your links are still fine. So here
is a chance to submit them a second time...

The second reason why we're emailing you today is to let
you know that we published a new blog post with tips and
tricks to better spin your descriptions, and stay within
the 1,200 characters limit. Click this link to read it now:

http://socialmonkee.com/blog/article-spinning-tips-and-tricks

To Your Success in Business & Life,

The SocialMonkee Team

P.S. - Once again we apologize for this technical issue.
Thanks for your understanding!

Changes to Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service

Is this email not displaying properly?
View it in your browser.

Dear Google user,

We're getting rid of over 60 different privacy policies across Google and replacing them with one that's a lot shorter and easier to read. Our new policy covers multiple products and features, reflecting our desire to create one beautifully simple and intuitive experience across Google.

We believe this stuff matters, so please take a few minutes to read our updated Privacy Policy and Terms of Service at http://www.google.com/policies. These changes will take effect on March 1, 2012.


One policy, one Google experience
Easy to work across Google Tailored for you Easy to share and collaborate
Easy to work across Google

Our new policy reflects a single product experience that does what you need, when you want it to. Whether you're reading an email that reminds you to schedule a family get-together or finding a favorite video that you want to share, we want to ensure you can move across Gmail, Calendar, Search, YouTube, or whatever your life calls for with ease.

Tailored for you

If you're signed into Google, we can do things like suggest search queries – or tailor your search results – based on the interests you've expressed in Google+, Gmail, and YouTube. We'll better understand which version of Pink or Jaguar you're searching for and get you those results faster.

Easy to share and collaborate

When you post or create a document online, you often want others to see and contribute. By remembering the contact information of the people you want to share with, we make it easy for you to share in any Google product or service with minimal clicks and errors.


Protecting your privacy hasn't changed

Our goal is to provide you with as much transparency and choice as possible, through products like Google Dashboard and Ads Preferences Manager, alongside other tools. Our privacy principles remain unchanged. And we'll never sell your personal information or share it without your permission (other than rare circumstances like valid legal requests).

Got questions?
We've got answers.

Visit our FAQ at http://www.google.com/policies/faq to read more about the changes. (We figured our users might have a question or twenty-two.)


Notice of Change

March 1, 2012 is when the new Privacy Policy and Terms will come into effect. If you choose to keep using Google once the change occurs, you will be doing so under the new Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

Please do not reply to this email. Mail sent to this address cannot be answered. Also, never enter your Google Account password after following a link in an email or chat to an untrusted site. Instead, go directly to the site, such as mail.google.com or www.google.com/accounts. Google will never email you to ask for your password or other sensitive information.
