I just checked my blogs and found all my 30+ Blogs were deleted by blogger.com My contest entry blog for the new SEO Contest for which i was working was ranking at #20 from 57000 Results and now its automatically deleted. Many of my old blogs were PR5 and some of them gave me around 700 uniques / day. First the India govt blocks all the blogs and now i see all my blogs deleted. Any option to get them back?
I think I bought a bunch of links from you too! Have you tried to communicate with the blogger about this? As for the content, you could always look at the cached pages...
Email and ask them why they were deleted, maybe it was an error with the database or something. Go into the google cache quickly and get all your posts. Then set up the blogs on your own server!
Oh,sorry to hear that...I think its better to run your blogs on ur own server...Maybe you could contact Google..Good Luck!
I`m always saying: Get a paid hosting, you could sue them for a thing like this, but you can do nothing to a free hosting
You get what you pay for, always thought it would be nice not to deal with the hosting, but stories like these always keep me on paid hosting.
Dont worry about the links i will get you the same links from my other wordpress blogs. When i login to the page i see 0 blogs and when i try to create my old blogs i get that the blog name is already booked How to contact google?
Are you even allowed to have 30 blogs on Blogger? I didn't know they'd let you have that many. Wherever you host, paid or not, you should always make multiple backups. But if you can't get it from Google's cache, maybe they are also in the Wayback machine.
iam trying to register back which ever i can and getting the posts back. but i dont think google will give me the whole backup
sorry to hear that, dude. I posted about them doing it a year ago. For those of you who still use blogspot, here it is. Google makes excuses for it whenever they respond to complaints about it. What can be done? You tell me!
Damn seems someone took my contest blog now and i lose my entry there :-| Got all the other blogs and iam getting the content from the cache. this guy is booking all my blogs - http://www.blogger.com/profile/26455811 i see seomeeting with him now
that's got to be hurt, ouch...I don't think google will bother to restore you blog. Don't you have a back up?
No i dont have any backup's but all aare indexed in google with full content so will have to register them and get them back. Seems many people already booked by deleted blogs
lesson learn - when you lost something, don't tell other it is valuable anyway, don't put all egg in one basket. And do backup regularly
And in case anyone else experiences this and reads this... As soon as they get wiped, claim them back so at least you keep 'ownership'. Then start worrying about your content. But then again, we've heard this so many times now so I guess there's really no reason to stay with Blogger. My Blog is going to paid hosting for sure (been planning that for a while actually).
Even google lost their blog a few weeks back. Some chancer registered it and put a message up saying they could email him if they wanted it back.
