Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer instead to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you prefer to change your username rather than create a new account, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. Thank you.

 * I will leave this for an uninvolved administrator to review, but if you look closely at the above notice you will see that it says gives the impression that you represent a group or business. Your name and your edits also give the impression that you intend to use wikipedia to host your own content regarding SEO and other internet marketing activities. This is an encyclopedia, not a place to engage in business activities of any kind. If you are not interested in contributing to the actual project then there is no reason for you to have an account at all, so it would be helpful if you could explain what you intned to do should this block be lifted.

As it says quite clearly above, Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked. --jpgordon:==( o ) 03:43, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

I guess I am not understanding, I don't see why my user name would be blocked yet you allow user names like Myrtle-beach-seo!! This makes no sense to me at all... Any user name ideally can "look like" it were a business... Can someone assist in explaining why mine was blocked and this one not? Really an explanation from user: jpgordon would be best. Thanks
 * It is probably down to the fact you have a section at the top of the page labelled Internet Marketing Areas of Focus - That shows you are not really here to build an encyclopedia, and casts doubt over why you are actually here. Mdann52 (talk) 12:40, 11 April 2013 (UTC)

Hmmmm... Those are the areas I was wanting to speak about to better help local businesses understand each topic. Many individuals who own businesses here in Myrtle Beach have been wanting a place they can go to find more information and explanations on these topics but at a local level which is why I thought to create this reference. I am very confused as to why my username would get blocked, I mean everyone knows that the second an individual added content or links relating to their website would at the very least have the page blocked by Wiki admins if not their IP banned resulting in wasted time and effort building the reference. The poor excuse used was that a search was done on google showing there was a business named Myrtle Beach Internet Marketing. Seriously? You can do a search for more than half the user names here on wikipedia in google and I guarantee you will find a business with that name. Then I find the Myrtle Beach Seo username that has been on here for quite some time and it's not banned. Yet if you do a search on Google there is clearly a business with that term. I have absolutely NO invested interest in ANY business named Myrtle Beach Internet Marketing. Sad because this would have been a very good place for the local businesses to visit for information without being slammed with SEO ads! Oh well, Sorry Myrtle Beach!


 * It is now clear there is a serious misunderstanding here. This is not a how-to website for local marketing projects. Never has been, never will be. This is an encyclopedia, a compendium of articles on subjects of general interest. So, even if you did agree to another username, what you are proposing to would not be allowed as it is entirely outside the scope of what Wikipedia is for. You may want to look at this list of other websites for a more apporpriate forum for what you wish to do. Beeblebrox (talk) 16:08, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
