Well we are now into August and the relaunch has been hit by a small snag. It is nothing that will hold us back but more of something that I find an inconvenience. Entrecard have rejected the site from bing part of their network.
Reason : “Spam Blog”
They have said the LM-BLOG is a “spam blog” something which I do not understand. A site that has been open for nearly 3 years and during that time has posted many great articles and had at our peak hundreds of daily visitors (many of whom visited regularly).
I have contacted them to see what they say about this deletion quoting posts from the past and just generally looking for a good reason from them. My biggest tool against being called a “spam blog” however is this post. IF this was a spam site I would not be able to write this post.
I will forget about entrecard if they ignore my emails and move on to the next stage, which will include adgitize and a final tweak of the layout and categories.
