My blog is listed on Pakistani Bloggers but posts from my blog don't appear under What Pakistani Bloggers are Saying Today, why?
If your blog posts stopped appearing or don't appear at all, then the Pakistani Bloggers Blog Reviewer may have dropped your blog's RSS/Atom feed from its mainpage crawl-list and now needs it to be manually re-reviewed and re-inserted on request. A few technical reasons why Blog Reviewer drops a feed from its list may include:- Too few/limited words in feed posts and/or too little content and/or too few posts in feed
- Misconstructed feed (invalid characters/text/content in feed/posts/titles)
- Floods (too many posts at once/too much invalid content and/or text in titles, etc)
- Broken feed (invalid url/redirects etc)
- Identical post/content repitition/duplication
- Non-compliance with the Rules
- Etc, etc.
Please also note that a blog's inclusion in the Pakistani Blogs and Bloggers List is not a guarantee for its posts to appear under What Pakistani Bloggers Are Saying Today, since our Blog Reviewer is NOT an all-inclusive aggregator but adheres to a variety of selection guidelines and editorial discretion.

I registered but I never received any activation email, why?
Most webmail services like Gmail, MSN or Yahoo treat activation emails as Junk mail automatically because of so much spam from everywhere. Please wait a while and then check your Junk Mail, Spam or any such folder for an activation email from Pakistani Bloggers. If you still couldn't find it, you may contact us.

I clicked the link in my activation email, but your website says my account does not exist, why?
Most probably you did not click the link provided in your activation email within the time period allowed by our spam filters. If you did not click the link within a few hours of receiving our activation email, chances are that your information was automatically removed by our spam check. You are welcome to create an account again (but remember to activate it soon).

Why has my account been deleted, my privileges revoked and my email banned from signing up again?
There is zero spam tolerance at Pakistani Bloggers, so any repeated offence results in complete account removal (including all posts) without any explanation. We're sorry but we simply cannot handle spam and users who simply ignore the rules.
