If you have used Internet, you’ve probably come across a situation where you need to be notified whenever a page changes, but unfortunately the site doesn’t offer alerts through RSS or email. For example, registration to a site has been closed and you want to be notified when the registration opens up again. Notifyr does exactly what you want. It sends instant email notification whenever a page changes.

Notifyr is a free service and doesn’t impose any forced registration process. You just need to go to notifyr.org and create a new notifyr. Fill-in details such as URL of the page, your email address. Optionally, you could also use phrase finder to track the specific text on page. For instance, Nintendo Wii is out of stock and you want to get notified whenever it is available. That’s it! You just have to sit back and relax while notifyr does the entire job for you.

Notifyr is a fantastic tool, if used sensibly. It doesn’t send any confirmatory email or whatsoever, so if spammers point Notifyr towards a frequently updating URL and give your email address; it will flood your mailbox within hours.
