  Hi, If I want to have several gravatars associated with several wordpress.org sites, do I need a wordpress.com site for each one in order to keep them separate?

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

  A gravatar account and a wordpress.com account are one in the same thing.

  Why Does Gravatar Say I Already Have an Account?

  You can use one gravatar image for each username account. It will apply to all sites referred under the same username account. And, the Gravatar help link is http://en.gravatar.com/support/

  Thank you! I’m still a little confused. In terms of best practices, if I want a different Gravatar associated with each worpress.org site that I have, do I need a different wordpress.com account for each one?

  Hi @jonathanbjacobs, you would just need a different email account for each one. All of them can be connected to the same Gravatar (wordpress.com) account.

  If you’re using a mail service that supports alias, you could use that too.

  Got it. Then how do I make sure I connect the correct Gravatar to each wordpress.org site?

  @jonathanbjacobs you would use that email address in setting up the WordPress.org user for each site. You just won’t need multiple WordPress.com users. I hope that helps :)
