Webhost ever ban you?

[Grant]

Has a webhost ever banned your sites? I've never had to deal with it, but I'm curious to know if anyone is banned from them or banned by mistake. Have you ever been banned by your host? Did you appeal the decision? What was their reason? Did you move to another host instead?

My website was once suspended and I created a support ticket. Fortunately they replied promptly saying it was wrongly detected by their anti-fraud system whatever whatever.

Well, this has not happened to me yet. I do not envole in making sites that are usually considered illegal, for instance pirated soft downloads, sites about guns, drugs and violence hate speech, even porn. I only create family friendly sites as I use adsense on my sites to make money.

One forum got overrun with spam and I forgot about it. It became so bad that after repeated warnings the host got sick of it. I was banned.

Ah I'm sorry to hear you went through that, but I am happy to hear your host had you covered and sorted it out in due time.

Yeah AdSense is very particular about what they do and don't allow. I know gambling was a big one, same with adult content and anything that's deemed illegal.

Yikes, I'm sorry to hear that. Why did you forget about it? Just lost in the shuffle with other sites you were working on at the time?

Yeah, something that was what was going on. Should have paid attention. From now on I try to stay on top of stuff.
