How to Unsuspend a Suspended WordPress Site

As a website owner, maintaining an active and up-to-date personal website is crucial for several reasons. Not only does it impact our university’s image and credibility, but it also plays a significant role in search engine optimization (SEO). In this article, we’ll explore the importance of consistent website updates and provide step-by-step instructions on how to unsuspend a suspended WordPress site.

The Importance of Consistent Website Updates

1. University Image and Credibility

A well-maintained website reflects positively on our university’s image. Visitors often judge the credibility and professionalism of an institution based on the quality and freshness of its website. Outdated content, broken links, or suspended pages can leave a negative impression and deter potential students, faculty, and stakeholders.

2. Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

Search engines like Google prioritize websites that provide relevant and up-to-date content. Regular updates signal to search engines that your site is active, relevant, and valuable to users. Fresh content also improves your chances of ranking higher in search results, driving organic traffic to your university’s site.

Unsuspend a Suspended WordPress Site

If your WordPress site has been suspended, follow these steps to restore it:

  1. Scroll to the bottom of this Page:
    • A self-service for the users to unsuspend page has been provided by Web Unit, UTMDigital.
  2. Provide Your Information:
    • Fill in your email address associated with the website login account.
    • Enter your site’s URL (e.g., https://people.utm.my/abdullah).
    • Click the submit button to initiate the unsuspension process.
    • Your site will be unsuspended if the information given is found in the database.

Remember that timely action is essential. The longer your site remains suspended, the greater the impact on our university’s online presence. The university webmaster will monitor your site for updates, security patches, and plugin maintenance to prevent future suspensions.

By following these steps, you can quickly unsuspend your WordPress site and ensure that it continues to serve as an effective communication channel for your university community.
