I am super fraustated. Blogger deleted my blog accusing it of spam. I had created it 2 years ago and made it complete with hardwork. It was a money earning blog with the best ptc,ptr,survey and other sites with adsense on it. I had earned about 500 dollars from it. And now they deleted my blog. My repeated petitions and request to blogger for restoring my blog fell into deaf ears. So i created another similar blog some weeks and this blog got deleted too yesterday. My new blog had only 3 posts with no adsense and i didn't do anything to call it spam. Thus i have concluded that blogger is a very insecure platform. Now i started blogging on wordpress.com yesterday and today i learned that i cannot monetize my free wordpress.com blog with adsense. So perhaps i will look after hubpages or squidoo. Does any of you have a similar experience? What platform should someone choose in such a situation which also includes adsense.Will hubpages or squidoo be a good option. Reply, mylot friends.

No my friend I didn't experience this but I can say that most of the internet business are scam these days.It is obvious because these companies are not commuted for honesty.I think that if you are good blogger which I think you are then please do something else may be publish some book or anything like that but do waste your talent in some stupid internet sites.If you still wants to be on internet then you can you this site mylot.Bye and keep it up.

Hi ritwik, Bad to hear that your blog is deleted by blogger. Even i worked very hard on my blogs. Blogger deleted my six blogs till now but still now i have one more blog online from past three months but i will not use it much because one or other day it will also get deleted. So better option is use own domain and hosting. I am fed up with all bloggers sites like blogger. I will launch my new site within january. One more thing even wordpress deletes the blogs. You have to read their terms and conditions carefully. Have a nice day.

hey friend, seems like many people got their blog deleted by blogger accusing them of spam. It's pitiful of such a situation. Blogger should atleast give advance warning before deleting blogs. I hate them. I decided to move on to wordpress.org self hosted.

i'm so sorry to hear about what is happening to your blog... unfortunately, i can't offer you any advice on this matter as it is not my expertise... but i can only encourage you not to give up blogging and try to look for other platform to start over again... i know that it is easier to say than done... but that's the best you can do... take care and have a nice day...

i am really sorry for what happened to you... i am also having a blog for more than a year now and its all hard work on the blog. i post one snap every day on the blog and so far i have been able to do that for 330 days.... and more... but the thing is now that i know about these problems, i think it will be better if i keep a backup. but the problem is, blogger has no facility to even backup the data on your blog. i have a website of my own for my photography but then, i cannot transfer the blog data... let's see what can be done... thanks for the information any ways :) check out my blog if you like: http://onesnapeveryday.blogspot.com and my website http://www.amitavroy.com

hey friend, don't put your site name in comments as mylot will ban you as it's against their TOS. I saw your site.It's a nice photograhy site and i like it. However i have developed a disgust over blogger and would never make a blog here as i feel without control of my other blogs over there.Very insecure platform for blogging. Bye.Happy mylotting.

That's strange, I had a blog on Blogger with a similar subject and had no problem. I deleted mine because I just didn't like the subject. Mostly, mine was reviews, but I did have a few banners and referral links on there. I don't know why they would consider it spam unless you were mass e-mailing people about it. Otherwise, it's people's choice whether to look at it or not. I've always thought you could write about any legal activity on Blogger. Squidoo might be a good way to go, but I'm not sure. I know I've seen pages like that on there. That would be the only problem, there are several other people doing pages like that there.

It is a common practice on the part of blogger.com. You need not worry, you reapproach the administration of blogger.com and your blog will again be included. But I would suggest you to go for a paid platform where you can work freely without any such tension.

didi, requesting blogger administrators doesn't work. Many people had the same problem as i do. So i guess the paid altenative self hosting is the best option.

The same thing has happened to me a few years back and I found you need to be careful with blogger where you promote your site, because they reserve the right to delete you site at any time and not have to give a reason. I created a new blog on Blogger, but I don't promote it so much these days. I have my blog now with Wordpress Direct. There is a paid version and a free version. Currently I am with the free version and they are much more tolerant when you promote it. Once business picks up, I will go for the paid version, that way your blog will always be safe from deletion. _Derek

Can't you get a copy of their blog and see when it was written? If it was before yours then it is his word against yours. But if the blog he wrote was after yours then you didn't use his. I would check and if this is the case I would go from there. If this is a real problem then I would go to another platform. I know nothing of squidoo.

Well that is the point about getting your own host and domain, if you check their terms and conditions, you do not own the content. they have the right to remove when they see fit. you might want to consider the long run and invest some money.

Most sites will let you earn money...as long as you pay for the privilege on their site. Think about it. Would you want others earning money on a site you worked long and hard to build, but have them refuse to pay you for the right to do so? Every site wants to make a living. That can't happen if everyone only chooses the free option and nothing else.

I foreseen this situation and so I moved to a custom domain and professional hosting four months ago. I use self hosted wordpress platform. Also I feel using a custom domain will give you advantage in search results.

That also happened to me and I rebuilt another blog but it will most like get deleted at some stage anyway I have now my own site or blog call it what you like Its FREE!!! and so is the Hosting so if you want to have a look at it go to my profile, the top banner is my site/blog and if you scroll down you will see the link to the FREE!! site you cant miss it cos the little sheep is jumping up and down. You can load banners on there as well as photo's or more or less anything just play around with it to get it how you want I am always changing something on mine. I hope this will help you and anyone else if they want to build their own site, you can always contact me if you need any help with it but its pretty straight forward.
