I am perplexed as to how people are signing up on my website for something other that my newsletter.

  How does a user sign up to my site account? Can I add them to my email list?

  Could you post again to let us know the name of the website or the URL? That information is likely to guide us in beginning to answer your question.

  It’s a common mistake, but your support request is posted in the wrong forum. This forum supports websites hosted with WordPress.com. Your website is using WordPress.org, which allows for other hosting alternatives.

  DomainTools.com shows that your site is hosted with bluehost.

  There are similar support forums for WordPress.org websites like yours. To learn more, start here:
  https://wordpress.org/support/

  To post, you need a WordPress.org login. (And that login is different than your WordPress.com login.) You can create a WordPress.org login from this link:
  https://login.wordpress.org/register

  To (maybe) answer your question: yes, visitors to your site can sign up for your email list, if you add a plugin to your site that can provide that capability. How you would go about this depends on the service you are using for your email list. You can expect more specific information if you post in the correct forum, although it may require an exchange of more details. Good luck!
