    Been more than 1 year since the incident where my blogger website mysteriously got deleted. Emailed Blogger a couple of times regarding the isse, but heard nothing from them.

    Oh well, taught me a good lesson, and couple of months later, I got my own domain and server. But it is still a good waste of such a nice website i have. Oh just for those wondering, it is a website about football ~ Soccer.

    Oh yah, those traffic later are from Cache files .. some pple just like them on their computer : ))

    Ah.. those days

    Just a rant .. after 1 yr+

    Better to buy a domain and build your own blog.

    I am also using Blogger for my personal blog, but with custom domain, so if they mess something up and delete it, I will just start a new with Wordpress :) (I'll lose all my posts, but not my visitors or backlinks though).

    I agree with "metros". It's good to have a domain name for your blog

    Hm I dont visit websites with free domain, I think base for every website is own domain and webhosting.

    At least with your own domain you can sell it later. I give little authority to sites on free domains, because any professional could setup a domain very cheap.
