I dont fully comprehend why I get a lot of these emails titled as such. Yes, I want these alerts, but I want them with a proper name, not a generic name... I have configured many of these alerts properly / fully using the wizard, but still I get the "generic" email alerts...

i agree.

can you post one or two of the sources (or privately message me). we can take a look at it and determine the cause of those titles and how we can improve them.

The reason you get alerts titled "Diffbot Daily Alert" is because you configured some of your alerts as daily digests. Daily digests are aggregations of alerts that are packaged together so that you only get one daily email. In general, there can be multiple sources represented in a daily digest, which is why the title is "Diffbot Daily Alert" If you want your alerts to be delivered individually per source, switch the email method to "immediately". Then the email titles will be descriptive to that source.

You can check your alert email delivery settings at http://www.diffbot.com/account/alerts

HTH

How many times a day will diffbot.com check the webpage if I set it to "immediately"? And will it immediately send me a notification on EVERY change?

My use case is fairly simple. I want to monitor a bunch of pages, but I just want to be informed once a day in a descriptive manner, so that when looking at the title of the email I know whether to investigate the change further or not...

Yes, that's exactly right.

We'll keep in mind your use case as we redesign the format of our alert emails. If you have any suggestions for what the title should be of a daily digest of your sources, let us know.

I actually want only ONE email a day and alerts should be segregated (and not combined together at all). The title of the email alert (if NOT combined together) can be: "Diffbot Daily Alert: http://www.websitebeingmonitored.com/pagebeingmonitored.html" or something like that. Picking up the title text would be messy and subject to change as well.

if you had multiple daily alerts set on different sources, you would potentially receive more than one email per day.

we'll have to look into our stats to see how many users are using the daily alerts and poll them somehow to see if they also have a preference of a digest per source, or a digest for all their sources.
