How to Report a Website to their Host Server

[Escapefromstress 2976]

When you have legitimate legal issues with an Industry Website, the first step is to try contacting the Administrator to resolve the problem.

All legitimate Escort Ad websites and Review Boards provide a method for you to contact them, so look through the site links to find an email, PM or contact form. Some forums also have a â??Report Postâ?? feature that you can use to report problematic content.

Check to see if they have a â??Terms of Useâ?? policy or â??Site Guidelinesâ?? posted, so you can refer to the exact text that applies to your situation and ask them to abide by their own rules, if your legal rights have been violated.

For websites where the offenses have been committed by the Administrators and Moderators you would normally report to, or when dealing with bogus websites that steal content from legit sites, you can report those websites to their host server.
