I tell you one thing that all blogs are not spame so if you take some action to punish spame blogs that does not means that the fair blogs suffer by the action. If you inform the blogger about your action to remove or something else then it will make better understanding between blogger and the blog site. If you do something than it is good approach for the future.

Hey Bikash,
I agree cent percent with you. I would have liked it if google had done what wordpress did. Archive the blog, put a public post and inform every blogger.

Lets hope the google pr team works harder…

Google had done similar evil thing one fine morning with me and deleted one of my blogs considering it’s spam. Secondly, when I tried to contact them like 100 times for activation of the blog, they completely deleted my account itself. So other blogs were also deleted along with that. And they did not care to even drop a mail or reply to one of my mails atall.

I still use blogspot, there are reasons. It’s really user friendly, or I might be habituated to it. And I also understood that avoiding any spammish looking activity (Like using “mail to post” feature for any of the blogs – probably that was the reason for the first deletion).

Now for my current blog, techiecorner, I specifically login to blogger and add my posts.

@Maverick:

The only reason I think why people stick to blogger, is because of adsense and may be like you said easy interface.

But I prefer comfort. I would rather blog thro’ qumana and not worry about my blog disappearing without intimation.

I still stand by the fact that google does no evil. But they are not friendly either. Lets take your case. You lost all your posts without any trace. May be you could handle it. But if I lose all my posts at BotHack I would go crazy. Its a lot of hardwork and lot of knowledge archived in here. It would take me years to repeat the samething from scratch.

I feel sorry about your blogs getting deleted.

You can mail and ask them to activate ur blog again on the condition that u will delete all SEO entries.
Wordpress users have done the same and have got precious blog back.

@Trubo:
Which is exactly my point. Wordpress has a good feedback system. They firstly never deleted your blog, they archived it and since your feedback system is great, it wasnt difficult getting the blog back.

I am not very sure about the google blogger feedback system. But point taken, I should have checked it out.

“Hey it seems that ur this blog is now also blocked.”

uh huh? I quite didn’t get your point there. Bot-Hack seems to be running fine with me.

Neways best of luck with your SEO entry…
