      Seeking Alpha Stock Market Email Alerts FAQ
      You wrote: "Due to the popularity of our email alerts, the growing number of articles we publish daily and the subsequent load on our email server, we are no longer able to send full-text emails of Seeking Alpha articles. We have therefore changed your email alerts subscription to one concise, free, daily email listing all our headlines according to sector and stock."

      I see your problem, but for subscribers, one very useful feature has now been eliminated, i.e., getting your alerts when they are written, not a day later, and in aggregate. It seems to me that in business and finance, timeliness of information is of the utmost importance. Nothing is more stale and useless than day-old news.

      I see you are going to have some sort of new alert feature in the future. How about going back to separate emails again, but this time include only a snippet, a line, or the first paragraph of the article, plus a link to the rest of it? I know that won't cut down on your email load much, but perhaps enough.

      I'm still getting Pre market and morning stuff at the end of the day. If you're not going to address this issue, could you please post a note here about that, so we'll know? Also, would still like to see bylines and dates on the front page, as now cannot find anything by authors I read previously. Thank you.

      Why are these articles now coming a day late, when the info is stale? Can't find it on the front page, either. Please correct email alerts problem, and please return author, date and time to the front page.

      Since your site re-design, first, I lost my email alerts entirely, and now, I get both timely alerts, plus a once-a-day email, with a ton of articles, but at the end of the day, or, this morning, at the beginning of the next day, when the articles are a day old, and do me no good. I don't want once-a-day mode, and I did not have that mode selected before the site re-design.

      ON your email alerts sign up page, you mention the once-a-day mode, and you say "below," but there is nothing and nowhere to click below that would let one change the mode selection. Please fix this so that I can put myself back on alerts as they happen.

      Love your service, didn't think it needed re-design, wish things were back to normal.

      THanks

      Welcome to the New Seeking Alpha
      It would also be nice to see dates on the articles on the front page, so we can see where one day ends, and the next days' articles begin.

      Welcome to the New Seeking Alpha
      Could we have the author names back on the front page, please? Also, for some reason, all my email alerts disappeared - haven't gotten any since Friday.
