  Is it possible to let me know why the blog feed in wordpress.com shows as a duplicate site title? The site title is ok on my self-hosted wordpress site.

  http://wordpress.com/read/blog/feed/17345457/

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  http://www.trendcomputing.com/ is not a free hosted WordPress.COM blog and no posts form it ought to automatically appear in the WordPress.COM Reader because it’s NOT a blog being hosted by WordPress.COM.

  WordPress.com and WordPress.org are completely separate, have different log-ins and run different versions of themes with same names. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  We provide support only for free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and not for WordPress.org software installs. If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.

  I believe you can follow any blog with a rss feed from within wordpress.com http://wordpress.com/following/edit/

  I think the duplicate site title is because of yoast plugin or the blog theme.

  Blogs not hosted on WordPress.com will not appear in the Reader unless they are added by the user, as jamesrpepper said, or if they are reblogged by a blog on WordPress.com.

  @jamesrpepper, is your issue resolved? If not, could you post a screenshot to your WordPress.com media library so I can take a look at what you mean?
