Account suspension??

Hey @ivbs!

Sorry to hear your business got suspended! There is no difference internally between manually created and automatically created posts. The plugin uses the official Google My Business API to create posts, so its basically impossible that it was caused just by using the plugin. However, common sense still applies, I’m not ruling out that you can get suspended for creating low quality/spammy posts, be it through the plugin, or through the GMB dashboard itself. But like I said it is probably just a coincidence.

Hi @ivbs! Shame Google support has not yet responded, yes, they can be tough to deal with in situations like this. I hope you’ll get a positive response from them and that your locations will be reinstated.

Didn’t mean to imply that you created spammy posts, I’m just curious what could’ve cause the suspension. It’s most likely just a coincidence that it happened while using my plugin (listings get suspended for no apparent reason all the time), I just haven’t heard of it happening to anyone while using my plugin.

Of course leaving the plugin to auto-post unattended, there is a chance that it will post things from your website that break Googles’ content policy for posts, so using the feature is still down to your own best judgment and it should be used with caution. It will still require supervision. Again, most likely you did nothing wrong and it is just bad luck.

Anyway, if you hear back from Google, and they give you a reason for the suspension, I’d be curious to hear it! Lets hope for the best!
