  I want to ask friends to proofread my posts before I publish them on my wordpress.com blog. But I don’t want to have to ask them to register as a user to my site first.

  There’s quite a number of people I want to ask, different each time. If they have to register first, most of them won’t do it and I will not be able to make quality posts.

  Any solution except for self-hosting or copy-pasting the whole thing?

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

  hello there,
  I am afraid there isn’t any better way to it than what you have in mind. I would suggest you proofread your new posts using your personal emails and then publish them on your blog.

  Sorry, what do you mean with “proofreading using your personal emails” exactly?

  I meant that you should send out your content on email(gmail, hotmail etc..) to your friends for proofreading and then post the final version on the blog. That way all your friends will help proofread your content.
