If You Gave Control Of Your Blog To Someone Else, It's Not Your Blog

We see this naive question, from time to time, in Blogger Help Forum: How Do I?.
I added my friend as an administrator, to my blog. He changed permissions, locked me out, and now I don't have access. Can Blogger get my blog back?
Here, we have bad news for you.

The only way you can prove ownership of a blog is by having control.

If you give up control of your blog, it becomes somebody else's blog. If you want control of the blog restored to you, this becomes an internal dispute between you (the former owner), and your previous friend (the current owner).

Blogger Support can't involve themselves in internal disputes.

Once again, we have to remind you to only give control of your blog, to people you can trust.

The blog that you save may be your own.

Add A Custom Redirect, If You Change A Post URL

When you rename a blog, the most that you can do, to keep the old URL useful, is to setup a stub post , with a clickable link to the new URL. Yo! The blog is now at xxxxxxx.blogspot.com!! Blogger forbids gateway blogs, and similar blog to blog redirections . When you rename a post, you can setup a custom redirect - and automatically redirect your readers to the post, under its new URL. You should take advantage of this option, if you change a post URL.

What's The URL Of My Blog?

We see the plea for help, periodically I need the URL of my blog, so I can give it to my friends. Help! Who's buried in Grant's Tomb, after all? No Chuck, be polite. OK, OK. The title of this blog is "The Real Blogger Status", and the title of this post is "What's The URL Of My Blog?".

Referer Spam Is Annoying - And, It's Persistent

Recently, we've seen a few blog owners who are curious about odd trends in their Stats displays. My numbers seem to go up steadily for a while, then drop. Then, they go up again, for a while, then drop again. Rises and falls in traffic are normal. You'll never have the same number of people, viewing your blog, constantly. During some days and some hours, our readers are going to be elsewhere, and not viewing our blogs.
