Dear readers,
Blogger has deleted my blog yesterday. I think blogger thought that iMessengr is spam blog.
I was trying to make three or more posts everyday. I was looking for fresh content every day and spent two or three hours on internet to find up to date content. After I've started to blogging, I've interested in New Blogger templates. I've read many other great blogs about it and learned a lot. I've modified some blogger templates with these quality hacks and released them to download for free.
I know many things about spam or auto blogs. I could setup hundreds of them if I wanted to. But I've never tried that.
My blog was doing fine. I've got more then 150 subscribers and have a pagerank of 4 lately. But yesterday I've got shocked after I've seen that my blog is deleted. There was a note when I've clicked to restore my blog:
"If your blog is disabled, it will be listed on your Dashboard, but you will not be able to click on it to access it. If this is the case, there will be a grace period during which you can request that it be reviewed and recovered. The disabling is a result of our automated classification system marking it as spam. Because this system is automated there will necessarily be some false positives, though we're continually working on improving our algorithms to avoid these. If your blog is not a spam blog, then it was one of the false positives, and we apologize."
As you can see, blogger doesn't know if it's spam or not. They don't even send me a warning.
So, if you want to help me, drop an email to blogger : support@blogger.com
If you have a blogger account, please use this form!
If you are not sure that my blog is not spam blog, please read my shared feed of iMessengr.com. At least it's still alive.
