Unable to post on my Google+ time line
For the last 1 week, I was unable to post on my Google+ time line. Am getting this message - This post violates our policies, it's visible only to you.
Anyone else experiences this, how to tackle this problem?
Appreciate your input for the above matter.
You should be getting some additional information along with that message - a link to the Policies ( http://www.google.com/intl/en/+/policy/content.html ) and a link for reconsideration request. Apply for reconsideration.
The most likely reason according to me is that someone has reported your post. See the answer by a Google employee here : http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/google-plus-discuss/oq4rVu34QJo
we manually review when the Google+ community reports content through our Report abuse feature, and the appeals process varies in time depending on the violation and other factors. If you appeal the violation on 2 posts, only those 2 posts will be re-reviewed by our team.
It might also be an automatic block based on heuristics like posting excessive links.
Also, according to their Terms, holding contests on G+ pages is not allowed.
Can you tell what is the content of that Google+ post which is being blocked?
Normally I posted my blog post that contains recipe. Have sent the same post to a few communities after I discovered other bloggers did this. As of now, unable to post on my own time line as well as to all communities.
If I apply for reconsideration, how long it takes to lift the ban?
Thanks for your guidance.

I don't have any idea about it. I don't use G+ and whatever information I gave was based on what I found googling the problem.
Just apply for reconsideration and see if it solves your problem. If it doesn't post your problem on the official Google+ forums. Some Google staff answer questions there. So, they may look into your problem.
