# Link change notifications

> Email up to 5 recipients when a backlink status changes. Toggle per domain and delay alerts 0, 24, 48, or 72 hours.

Ples can email you when a monitored link’s status changes (for example dofollow to not found). Configure this at [app.ples.com/settings/notification](https://app.ples.com/settings/notification). You need **Notifications** permission.

## Recipients

You can add up to **5** addresses. The account email can be one of them. Add any extra inbox you want to notify.

Each recipient can be limited to specific **domains**. Turn a domain off if that person should not get alerts for it.

## Delay

Choose how long Ples waits before sending, so a one-off scrape miss does not page you:

* **No delay** — send immediately
* **24 hours**
* **48 hours** (recommended)
* **72 hours**

If the link recovers before the delay ends, that alert is not sent.

## Steps
