Sad news.
Whilst on a glorious vacation in Europe, my http://platinum1destinations.wordpress.com blog was deleted. Ouch!
I have to say 8 months of hard work and in my opinion, some excellent posts were deleted in a blink of an eye.
I tried to follow wordpress's instructions on how to transfer my files to another host, but I was unable to do it. Any help would be appreciated on this matter.
My sadness became something close to anger when I realized that not only my blog, but a plethera of other wordpress blogs belonging to P1D members were deleted at the same time.
I do not know if this was a result of complaints or flagging by competitors, but I have really learned a lesson. Namely:
1. Host your own blogs
2. Keep your interesting posts filed away somewhere on your desktop.
3. Anticipate the worst but hope for the best when it comes to websites.
I loved my wordpress blog, it was easy to manage and was chock full of "me".
It's now back to the drawing board.
Hopefully this helps you from becoming a victim and losing your work.
Cheers
Maria Porter
