  I want to add a follow button immediately after the grey text (which is an image).

  Adding to a footer widget places it right at the bottom of the page, so that’s no good.

  How can I create a follow button and place it within a text field?

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

  Hi,

  Neither the Follow Button (which is a widget) nor the Follow Blog Widget may be added to the content of a page or post.

  Regarding a widget in a footer widget area, you might want to consider using a jump link in your menu that goes to the bottom of the page. See the example titled “CLICK HERE TO JUMP TO BOTTOM” in the Page Jumps support page. I imagine you would just need to substitute the word “bottom” instead of “top” in the code provided in the Sending Readers to the Top of the Page section of the support page.

  We have a blog 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.
