  Why if it is free am I being asked to pay?

  Not sure, I have a premium account but it keeps asking me to upgrade to premium. Mind if I ask what “akismet” is? Really new to this.

  Akismet is free and it is built in to each WordPress.com blog. If you want to use it as a plugin on a WordPress.org blog, it is also free.

  Radiowewak, you’re in the wrong forum if you’re asking about the wordpress.org plugin. I think Akismet does have some payed options that are a bit better than the free option, but I’ve had no issues with my free API key. For more help, please post at http://www.wordpress.org/support
