  Hello! Is there anyway to make my blog accessible to people who do not wish to make a wordpress account? Can they follow, comment and like without creating one? I’m using the free .com option now… if it isn’t an option with the free platform, is this something that can be accomplished with a paid plan? Thanks for your expertise!

  Hi there,

  You do not need to have a WordPress.com account to follow a blogsite. For more information on following a blog without an account, please visit:

  Only followers who have a WordPress.com account and are logged in to that account can like a post on your site:

  https://wordpress.com/support/likes/

  You can control whether or not you want only people with a WordPress.com account to comment on your site, or if you want to allow anyone to be able to. For more information on who can comment on your site, please visit:

  Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
