Beberapa hari lalu [tepatnya saya pun tidak tahu dah berapa hari] tapi dari traffic stat sepertinya mulai 17 agustus 2009 blog ini disuspend oleh WordPress!
Lho ada apa?? Kenapa di suspend? Sayapun dengan penuh kebingungan bertanya-tanya? Apanya yang salah, bolak balik aku baca kembali Terms Agreement untuk melihat apa yang salah dengan blog ini??
Setelah wara-wiri nyari tahu juga ngga nemu, akhirnya aku memutuskan untuk bertanya langsung ke pihak wordpress, what happen bro?? Tak mesti menunggu berhari-hari, sebuah email dari pihak WordPress-pun masuk ke inbox emailku, siangkat dan padat,
“Hi,
Could the ads be removed please?
That was the cause.Mark”
begitulah kira-kira bunyi email balasan dari wordpress. sambil menunggu detail masalah nya dan penanggulangannya aku pun membuang sementara beberapa ads tersebut.
Setelah minta pertanggung jawaban detailnya, baru dibalas lagi sama si Mark, lagi-lagi singkat dan padat isinya:
Hi,
We do not yet allow ads.
-
Mark
Setelah aku perhatikan kembali dengan seksama ToS (Terms of Services) memang wordpress rupanya tidak mengijinkan ads dan sejenisnya. Ni… ToS detailnya bagian ads:
Adsense, Yahoo, Chitika, TextLinkAds and other ads are not permitted to be added by users. Please send us feedback if you’d like to put ads on your blog, as we are considering such a feature for a future upgrade.
Please check our page on types of blogs to find out what type of content is permitted on WordPress.com.
In addition to AdSense-type ads, please do not use the following services on your blog: sponsored / paid posts including PayPerPost, ReviewMe and Smorty; affiliate / referral links to the following domains: usercash, clickbank, clickhop, cashrocks, payingcash; clicktrackers (and any similar) and any promotion of the “I made a million on the internet and so can you” type of advertising (i.e. MLM, network marketing, cash gifting, etc.).
If you are in any doubt, please contact support for clarification.
We have a very low tolerance for blogs created purely for search engine optimization or commercial purposes, machine-generated blogs, and will continue to nuke them, so if that’s what you’re interested in WordPress.com is not for you. A self-hosted solution would be much more appropriate for you; suitable hosts can be found at http://wordpress.org/hosting/
hmmm! kado yang bagus di hari 17-an! benar-benar merupakan pengalaman yang berharga!
