    Can anyone following your blog like your blog post or do they have to have a WordPress account? A friend without a WordPress account tried to like my blog post but was redirected to sign up for a WordPress account.

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

    I believe you’re referring to the Like button shown here:

    http://d.pr/i/1hQIk

    Is that correct? If so, users will need to have a WordPress.com account to use that button. It’s a WordPress.com-specific Like button associated with a specific WordPress.com profile. When someone likes one of your posts, you’ll see a picture of their Gravatar next to the button. If a user tries to use that button when they’re not logged in, they will be prompted to either login or create an account.
