  Hi there,

  Apologies, but we can’t help with your issue directly because we don’t host mommyslp.com on our WordPress.com managed hosting.

  To explain, we are a fully managed hosting provider and use a custom server environment that is optimized for WordPress, provides built-in security and performance improvements, as well built in spam filtering and in-house support for your site questions. You can learn more about the performance and security benefits of our managed hosting here: https://wordpress.com/hosting/

  You definitely have the option to move your site to us so we can provide in-house help, and we offer a migration plugin that will help you move your site to our managed hosting in just a few clicks.

  Akismet is the built-in system we use for spam rejection, and you can add it to your site as a plugin and it will offer the same functionality.

  Hope that helps!
