  If a site is suspended, how long does it take to review the suspension and lift it? I only created the site today and don’t even know what I did wrong – I tried to import my blog from Blogger, following the instructions, and that’s when it got suspended. It’s only a personal travel blog – no links, no adverts etc. I really want to crack on with working on the site while I’m in a hotel with good wifi.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Yes, I did that. I just wondered how long a response normally takes.

  A few hours to a few days, depending on staff load, day of the week, what the question is about the blog is etc.

  You might also review the following links for more information on what might have happened. Mistakes are sometimes made but you need to talk with the TOS people.

  We received your suspension appeal earlier today and our Terms of Service team will examine your site and reply to you over email as soon as possible.

  As @auxclass mentioned, the time it takes to review these requests depends on a number of factors and there’s not a predictable way to know how long it will take.

  Thanks for your patience.
