A Major Setback

Just as I thought I was making progress this week, I had one of my blogs that I have used for over 2 years now, flagged for spam, and deleted. I was emailed about the deletion, then a few moments later, my entire Google account was deleted! My Gmail, adsense, Blogger, and everything else, I had lost access to.

The blog they claimed was spamming was about tips to save money when having a baby. I used these methods when I had my son, before trying the MOIS course, and added some links for people to check out. Now, when I added links, I may have added a link per post, or most often, none at all. Google told me what I did was to get my blog to show up in search engines by over linking. I did not overlink and am a little besides myself since I put in so much work  and effort these past few days.

I request a review of the blog, but because it is not finished, there are a lot of things needs fixed, and I am afraid Google will forever delete my blog. Worst part is, I had no way of getting all the writing I have done the past few years saved. I wish I had a way to back it up! Any suggestions?

In the mean time, I will be working on writing articles and saving them to my note pad, while brain storming for ways to make sure my hard work is safe from automatic deletion.
