    Hello,
    I would like to use wordpress as my brand’s blog. How is it possible to remove the statement at the bottom of the page ”’create a free website with wordpress… theme is by ….’ and also the follow button.
    If I purchase a template will all these be removed?

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

    Hello,
    To remove the Follow button, go to the classic dashboard, then select Settings > Reading. Untick the box next to “Show follow button to logged out users.” and save changes.

    If you’re talking about a blog here on WordPress.com, removing the footer text is against the Terms of Service and may get your site suspended:

    11. Attribution. Automattic reserves the right to display attribution links such as ‘Blog at WordPress.com,’ theme author, and font attribution in your blog footer or toolbar. Footer credits and the WordPress.com toolbar may not be altered or removed regardless of upgrades purchased.

    Purchasing a theme doesn’t change the attribution requirement.
