Automated Social Blade Competitor Milestone Alerts
Every Monday, WebRun opens Social Blade, pulls your channel's subscriber count, rank, and grade alongside each tracked competitor's, archives a dated snapshot to Google Drive, and texts you by Twilio if a competitor overtakes you.
How do I know if a competitor overtakes me on Social Blade?
WebRun checks Social Blade every Monday for your channel's subscriber count, rank, and grade, alongside the same stats for each competitor you track. It archives a dated snapshot to Google Drive every week, and texts you by Twilio only when a tracked competitor's subscriber count overtakes yours, so a real shift in standing never goes unnoticed.
