Hi there! We came across your account, and noticed you have been using
some marketing tactics we consider .... less than ideal.
To be blunt, your account is in violation of our terms of service. Due
to this violation, we've had to disable your sites. The clause you violated is:
"Customer agrees to not engage in activities pertaining to Black Hat SEO, Spamdexing,
and so-called "Scraper sites." These can all have a severely detrimental effect
on server performance and are not permitted."
Unfortunately, we don't allow that sort of thing on our shared server, so, normally
we'd ask that you pack and leave (see below**).
However, if you wish to continue hosting this account on a DreamHost server, you will
need to upgrade to a Dedicated Hosting plan. Our Dedicated Hosting plans do not include
the same Terms of Service clause, and your activities will no longer impact other customers.
You may learn more about our Dedicated Hosting plans here:
http://dreamhost.com/dedicated/
You can easily upgrade to a Dedicated plan by visiting this link:
https://panel.dreamhost.com/index.cgi?tree=dedicated.dashboard&
Simply click the "Add a Dedicated Server" link and our system will help you select the service
you want and then it will automatically migrate your account to the new server.
**If you do not purchase a Dedicated Hosting plan, we'll be forced to close your account in 14
days, as per our terms of service. Here's that clause in our TOS:
http://www.dreamhost.com/tos.html
"This contract may be terminated by either party, without cause, by giving the other party 14 days
written notice. DreamHost Web Hosting will accept termination by electronic mail. Notwithstanding
the above, DreamHost Web Hosting may terminate service under this contract at any time, without
penalty, if the Customer fails to comply with the terms of this contract, including non-payment."
In that 14 day period, you'll need to move your domains and content to another hosting provider.
Please have all domains and data removed within this time frame as your account will NOT be
reinstated after it has closed. Your domains will be disabled during this time to prevent further
damage to the server. |
