Followers

I’m being told by family who are not WordPress members that they have to use a password to follow my blog or register and create a domain with you. I have another domain and web site of my own and think your system is ridiculous if it is true. Nowhere in you set up procedures do you mention anything like that.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
That’s not true. Everyone with internet access can click this link and view your blog http://foodtravelmovies.wordpress.com/

All that’s required to follow any blog is exactly what you were required to provide to register here, and that is a valid email address that the posts can be sent to.
Here subscribers control their own subscriptions and frequency of receipt of posts from sites they subscribe to. We cannot act on their behalf.
You can set up email subscriptions here > Appearance > Widgets > Follow Blog Widgets by using this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/follow-blog-widget/
We have a subscription shortcode which you can make use of. The help page on it is right here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/blog-subscription-shortcode/ You can also include the subscription shortcode at the end of every post you publish.
Staff have recently added the mailchimp widget for subscriptions and here is the link to the guide you must use https://en.support.wordpress.com/mailchimp
Additional information:
You can create a Subscribe page http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ add and customize a contact form with multiple fields, change the email address where you’ll be notified, and mark feedbacks as spam from your dashboard on that page. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/ -
