how does following work
-
I am a newbe. I need some help with following. I created my Blog. I have been telling people about the new Blog. I just had a question. He wants to know if there is anyway for him to get an email if I have a new post. Before I tell him to click on follow me, I need to make sure that is really how it works. If he clicks on follow me on my home page will it notify him by email every time I have a new post. Is the follow button on everyones page?
THANKS!!!!!!
EdThe blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Howdy Ed!
There are a few ways that a user could follow along. They’re broken down here:

I’ll separate them out even further.
If someone has a WordPress.com account and is logged in…
1. They can use the “Follow” button in the top bar as shown here:
2. They can click “Follow” in the Follow Blog Widget if you have it on your sidebar:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/follow-blog-widget/
If someone does not have a WordPress.com account…
1. They can enter their email into the pop-up in the bottom right-hand corner of your site:
2. They can enter their email in the Follow Blog Widget if you’ve set it up (same as #2 above).
Either of those 4 options will result in them receiving automatic updates when you publish!
