  I would like to know if making a comment to a post automatically makes you a follower to the blog. A couple of people made a comment to a post in one of my blogs, but I was not notified that they had signed up. Are they or not followers now?

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

  No, commenting does not automatically make one a follower of the blog.
