  Hi

  I have 2 blogs where I’m posting the exact same posts.

  On the blog with the domain I bought directly at WordPress.com in the dashboard, I get likes and followers,

  But on the other blog with the domain I bought at one.com and downloaded wordpress from wordpress.com, and later created a new blog on WordPress.com and did the “domain mapping” thing, there is no activity from other WordPress users.

  Do one of you have an answer to why this is?

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

  But on the other blog with the domain I bought at one.com and downloaded WordPress from WordPress.org…

  (ORG and not com)

  Posting the exact same content on two different blogs is really really bad – bad for search engines – they hate duplicate content almost as much as the Terms of service here forbid it (can get your blog suspended)

  For starters – how about all the URL’s you are asking about? I got really confused with your questions
