  My facebook friends can’t seem to follow my blog on WP, How do they do this? Thanks

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

  Those social media followers should show up in your stats, just because they follow your page on Facebook. Have you used Publicize on your WordPress.com site to link to your Facebook page? Or are you linking to a Facebook profile instead?

  By stats, I mean they’ll show up in your Publicize module. :)

  You might want to disconnect and reconnect to refresh the connection with both those accounts. There seems to have been some connectivity issues in the past few days, per @alexjgustafson in this post:
