I went through all the widgets but the Subscription widget wasn’t there. Is that only a widget that I have access to if I pay for “Pro”?

If you would like a follow button to appear on the bottom right hand corner of your site for those who do not have WordPress.com accounts see here >

Your site stats page displays how many followers you have, who your followers are, as well as how many people are subscribed to post comments on your site.
