How do I contact Behance?

This is the second time one of my projects has been marked as spam! I've been on Behance for a few years and have posted around 29 projects, half of which have been featured by Behance. I have 8 "Best of Behance" projects and am a proud Behance Pro member.

Recent Issues with Project Spam

In the last 2 months, 2 of my projects have been marked as spam without any explanation. All of my projects follow the same layout, including those that have been featured. They consist of project images showcasing the design and identity process, along with links to my other social media and contact information (nothing new or out of the ordinary).

 

That’s it—no nudity, no solicitation, no selling. Yet, for the second time, a project of mine was flagged just 1 day after posting. It had already received 150 likes and is a project I'm very proud of. The first time this happened, I submitted a ticket but didn’t hear back at all. I ended up having to re-upload the project, losing the 350 likes it had already accumulated.

 

 

 

 

Has anyone else dealt with this? I would really appreciate any input on how to prevent this in the future. It's incredibly frustrating, especially considering Behance approached me to speak with their Pro team about improving the platform and its features.

 

I would love ANY input.

 

best,

Hi! I’m experiencing an identical issue. One of my projects has been flagged as spam and was removed from publication. I believe it was a misunderstanding, because the project itself has no spam content, it’s just a regular project for an elephant sanctuary

Made my application to help center 8 days ago and still haven’t received any response from them.

The project has 3 co-owners: myself, a former colleague and my former employer.

Do you know where else I can contact Behance to check and solve the issue, besides via email? Because, apparently, help center is not actually helpful in this situation and i wouldn’t want to chase after them with the same issue for next few months trying to get it restored😓

I just posted a new project and it went directly to Private. I tried reuploading the project but it doesn’t work. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Thank you for the reply. I have submitted an appeal through the link Adobe sent me by email. Do you know how long does it usually take for my projects to be restored? I am currently applying for jobs and really need my Behance portfolio to showcase my design work 😞

Hey there,

I’m currently experiencing a very similar situation and, honestly, I’m not sure what else I can do at this point.

Earlier this month, I published a project where my studio account was set as the project owner, while a friend and my personal account were added as collaborators. The project was flagged as spam immediately after publishing. After carefully reviewing the project and not finding any violations, I cloned and re-published it — this time it went live without any issues.

However, after the initial flag, I received a warning email stating that further violations could lead to additional actions. To avoid making any mistakes, I contacted Behance via X (Twitter) and was directed to email Adobe Zendesk support, which I did more than three weeks ago. Unfortunately, I haven’t received any response so far.

About a week later, I published another project — this time with my personal account as the project owner and the studio account, along with other artists, added as collaborators. This project was also flagged as spam, and again I had no idea why. I waited a bit, reposted it in the same way as before, and once again there were no issues.

Last week, one of my older projects received an award, which — together with the other projects published this month — led to a significant increase in visibility and engagement. Shortly after that, I received another email stating that my account was flagged for spam again and that my visibility would be restricted. Since then, my projects seem to be excluded from search results, and interactions have dropped noticeably.

Following this, I submitted a support ticket and sent another email to Adobe Zendesk on Friday. Up to this point, I still haven’t received a single response regarding any of these issues. While I understand that the latest ticket and email are only about 5 days old, even my very first email from early January has never been answered.

I’m not sure if this is relevant, but both projects follow a consistent project structure. I intentionally designed them to function as studio projects, which is why they share a unified layout. Of course, the content and materials differ, as these are two completely different projects — only the layout is adapted.

I’m a Behance Pro and Creative Cloud customer, and I’m honestly very disappointed. I want to clearly state that I have no intention of misusing the platform. I’ve always acted respectfully on Behance and value it greatly as a space for showcasing creative work. Running both a personal account and a studio account is purely meant to separate personal and studio-related work — not to manipulate reach or engagement.

For now, I’ll wait a bit longer. However, if I don’t receive any help from Adobe this week, I’ll repeat the process and submit another ticket and email.

Any opinions or help would be very much appreciated.

I'm currently experiencing the same problem.

All I wrote about in my projects
was writing about the process and concepts behind the graphic designs and art photos I created.

Of course, I'm not producing pornography or advertising or promoting other companies, but
it was marked as spam and I can no longer log in or access Behance.

This is terrible.
The appeal page isn't responding either.

Hi guys! My project was banned yesterday for spam activity, although I did not engage in cheating😭 I sent an appeal and I received a refusal. Tell me, has anyone managed to appeal the refusal and return their profile to normal?

3 days is not long enough.  generally, you can expect evaluations to consume 1 to 2 weeks.

Hi, community!

 

We’re facing a situation: our Behance accounts are restricted in search, likes on projects don’t work, and new posts also can’t be liked. At the same time, following and saving projects to moodboards still works.

 

We have already submitted appeals, but they were declined, and we haven’t received a direct response from Adobe support yet. We also emailed support@behancenetwork.zendesk.com.

 

I’d like to know if anyone has experienced a similar problem and how it was resolved.

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Currently having a similar issue, seems like other people too are having this issue due to some recent posts in the past month.

I have been a pro subscriber for 1 year+ and done almost 10 paid projects on Behance. Behance has been my main source of client inquiry.

Now when searching my name in the people category you cannot even find my profile!

I have contacted support to try and resolve this, hopefully there is a solution.
