FOLLOW status
-
I know some people have tried to follow my blog – wobblenot.wordpress.com – but the status does not show their FOLLOW. They tried again and got messages that their status is pending. Is this unusual?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there. I followed your blog to test this and it worked for me both using the follow button in the admin bar and the follow button in the sidebar.
If they are non-WordPress.com users who followed you via the follow button in their sidebar, then they will first have to click the link in the confirmation email before they will receive updates from your blog. If they haven’t received that email, ask them to check their spam folders, and also the social tab in the Gmail inbox if they use Gmail.
Logged in WordPress.com users should only need to click the button in the admin bar and your blog should appear in their Reader. If it is WP.com users having this difficulty, it might be better if they post in the forum themselves, as the problem could be with their accounts rather than your blog.

Thank you for testing it out. I am new at this. I’ll give this instruction when I ask for a Follow on my FB page. Thanks again!
