Some people who click on my URL get blocked. Why is this happening?

  I sent out an invitation via e-mail to visit my site. The exact line read:
  Please check it out at http://www.TrueMarketingAdventures.com.
  Many people wrote me back and said when they clicked on it the site was blocked. It would take them to the URL “about blank”.
  What should I do?

  I checked http://www.truemarketingadventures.com/ and it redirected to http://truemarketingadventures.wordpress.com/ for me (that is the setting on your Store → Domains page).

  If some people couldn’t click the link in the email you sent out, one possibility is that you might have had some punctuation or text right after the link and it got mangled by some email clients. When sending URLs in email, you should put the link on a separate line with no punctuation if possible.
