    I want my followers to follow my curlandq.wordpress.com blog since the curlsandq.com domain expired. How do I link my followers to the correct URL?

    After noticing my site visits drop off, I had a couple of followers saying that they are not getting emails about my new posts.

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

    Hi there,

    Please note that a domain name is a name used to identify a particular website on the internet. Your site’s domain name is like your mailing address. Your domain exists independently of your site, so even if you cancel your domain, all the content on your site remains unchanged – this goes the same for your followers. The drop in stats could be that your readers may not know that your site’s address has reverted back to curlsandq.wordpress.com.

    You can find more information about domains here.

    As for the emails about post notifications for followers, please note your followers will have to check their own settings – you wouldn’t be able to do this for them. Have them check their Blogs you Follow email notifications by going here:

    http://wordpress.com/following/edit/

    In addition, have them check their Delivery Settings here to make sure they are not blocking emails from WordPress.com:

    If they are email subscribers, have them check their settings here:
