Yeah! OgbongeBlog is back :)
Wondering..."from where" ?
Well, Blogger Spam Automated Classification System disabled it on Saturday afternoon.
Exactly same thing happened in October last year but this time around, it was restored 4 days after it was disabled unlike then which took almost a month to get the blog back online.
So fast?
Well, I submitted the unlock request same day it was disabled and decided to chill for 48 hours. 2 working days elapsed and didn't get any feedback from Blogger. So, yesterday, I went ahead to post the complain at the Blogger forum and did the needful.
I forwarded the discussion's link to the contact that helped me with it last year and I was so glad when I received a mail from Blogger this afternoon that my blog has been reinstated.
You can now keep enjoying free access to my tutorials. :)
During the downtime, I was able to move my new blog from Blogger to Wordpress.
Link?
Don't worry, I will keep you informed once I'm through it. Still under construction...
Please, If you are on blogging on Blogger, always back up your blog and also ensure you set up a custom domain for the blog. Just my two cents...
Have fun!

Yea, when you have a back up file, you can move your content to Wordpress if Blogger strikes and decide not to restore your blog.
DeleteDid they give any valid reason as to why the great Ogbongeblog was brought down? This tells the world that Blogger can't be trusted are likely to disappoint when least expected.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the 2 cent advice and I hope others on blogger will be advising themselves.
Classified as spam blog by the Blogger Automated classification system. So, the Blogger team reinstated it after verifying that it is not a spam blog.
