I Think My Blog Site is GONE... Why?!?

It's a free blog site and I am using blogspot. When I checked today, I can see the site and shift to another link widgetserver. I don't know what went wrong and thinking how will I fix it. The sad part, I don't have back up of these writings published here. The last resort of action is to retrieve them. That would be a time-consuming course of action. "Do you have any idea about this concern?" "Where can I transfer all my writings?" "Any suggestions what site I can publish them for free?" Image Credit: assets.entrepreneur.com

It is nice that you were able to do this. I can't find the time to retrieve them for now.

Oh gosh, that is terrible. I don't know much about blogspot, but it doesn't sound like a reliable place. If you can retrieve them, do whatever you can even if it takes forever. I make sure I hoard everything just incase anything happens to my own website.

I was able to log in to the site. I tried to find ways to fix it. Good thing, the write-ups are there. I had seen some technical issue and fix it. Now, my personal blogspot is visible now. I will retrieve my compositions soon.

@DesirousDreamer I agree. Do you also keep your writing here in mylot? I haven't dared to have a copy of my writings here, too.

@Shavkat That's good! Make sure to always store your writing in multiplaces. Always be a hoarder of your writing because you never know what is going to happen!

I have not very well understood which is the problem. Were you re-directed to another site? I just checked my blogspot and it works.

@LadyDuck I think it is fine now. I will deal with it if there is time. Do you always check your blogspot?

Sorry. I can log in to the site. At first, I cannot see my blogspot. I deleted some of the widgets, there is still something wrong with the contents. I stopped fixing it. I will deal with it next time.

I do not know what could be the problem but I checked online and there are writings that say not to use Blogspot. Anyway I use Blogger and also Wordpress both very good sites you can use for free.

So far so good. I had fixed it. I changed the theme template and it works. I think I will check these two sites. I have this crazy idea to blog about food.

I guess that is the reason free blog sites are discouraged by many. I hope you can retrieve your articles and save them for security and your peace of mind.

@hereandthere It is about the HTML thing. Then, I deleted some widgets. But, it turned to disarray the contents. Thus, I changed the theme.

Did you try to contact the webmaster? It will be terrible if it is gone but without advising the users to have backup in advance.

@Hannihar I am not sure. It is an automated prompt in fixing the problem.

You can save it on Word. That is the downside of using a free site. They will erase your stuff even without your permission.
