I started my new one on Blogger because that's where my other blog is, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to import it to Wordpress. For a more flashy & professional looking template as well.

Oh my goodness! Thanks for putting this out there. I worry about this, so we backed it up, but it's crazy that it actually happens.

Hi Everyone!

The next Morning (yesterday), my blog was deleted!
You can't imagine my horror!!!
I had 102 individual blog posts, with pics....and I actually had an Eden Fantasys contest going and everything.
It is gone now!
I got lucky yesterday and I acted fast. I "found" my blog content in my google reader- I copied and pasted everything into word. I then got to work on finding a webhost (that supports adult blogs) and I bought a domain. I am now using wordpress, I probably should have been doing this the whole time but in my ignorance...well, I AM learning!
Google didn't give me a reason for my blog to be deleted. They sent me a standard letter about possible reasons (spam blog, money-making blog) and like 5 steps to get my blog back...MAYBE in 3-5 business days.
They wanted me to jump through all there hoops. Just to live under the fear that it could happen again on blogspot??
Forget it!
My blog is my baby, my place to vent and tell my stories and be creative. I feel so violated.
Keep a copy of all your original work. Be careful who you advertise with on blogspot (black label ads will get you deleted for sure, I have heard). Protect your content. I would hate for this to happen to one of you guys.

I am finally making the move. Almost done copy pasting all the posts. (the import function only imported titles.
On the comments import it just imported the name of the commenter but not the comment, so I still have to copy past those.
Then onto checking all the links to be sure they work.
I haven't even bothered with formatting the layout yet, just working on the content. keeping it private until i'm done so there isn't duplicate content out there.
I've procrastinated on this. Finally making the move. then onto hosting. I have to do something because my stats are plummeting. and the Blogger issue Karen pointed out scares the crapola out of me.

Is there any issues to be aware of if I just move to wordpress.com for now. I have my own domain but I would like to put off getting hosting until I get to where I could at least break even on operating costs.

Wow, that's intense. Glad to hear you managed to rescue your content. Thanks for the reminder about saving work.

That's really awful, and I know I'd be a wreck if all of my hard work was suddenly deleted without warning. I hope other bloggers heed your warning and switch over to their own domain and hosting.

Hey folks. If you really want to protect your blog content, you should pay for web hosting space and a wordpress (or other blog/content management system), that way you are in control of it. Just $.02.
