  Every now and then I receive a “New User Registration” email from WP.
  I only have a few of these on my self hosted WP blog site. However, I have never understood where these new users come from or how they found my site. Also, what do I do with them if anything.
  I would appreciate some enlightenment about this, thanks.

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

  That’s not a WordPress.com hosted blog. I’m sorry but we are unable to provide support for any sites that are not hosted here at WordPress.COM and our support docs do not apply to your site.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support forums. http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the Theme support forums there.

  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
