  I had people signing up through my Web Site, http://www.wholebodyhealth.us, and I no longer have that or any other Web Site. How can people sign up to get my blogs when I start writing them again in January, 2015? Also, how can I get the info on who is signing up for my blog?
  Thanks,
  Dr. Tom Baldwin

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

  http://www.wholebodyhealth.us/ is not a WordPress.COM hosted blog. We do not provide support for WordPress.COM software installs here at WordPress.COM.

  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 support forums there.

  Resetting your WordPress.ORG password http://codex.wordpress.org/Resetting_Your_Password
  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page

  re: http://drtombaldwin.wordpress.com/

  Your subscribers will control the frequency they receive your posts emailed to them (instantly, daily, weekly, never).

  You can set up email subscriptions here > Appearance > Widgets > Follow Blog Widgets by using this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/follow-blog-widget/

  You could create a Subscribe Page.
  You can create a Page http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ and place a contact form on it for private communication with your visitors, or for opting into receiving post or a newsletter for example. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/

  Place the shortcode on it. We have a subscription shortcode which you can make use of. The help page on it is right here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/blog-subscription-shortcode/You could also simply include the subscription shortcode at the end of every post you publish.

  If you would like a follow button to appear on the bottom right hand corner of your site for those who do not have WordPress.com accounts go to > Settings > Reading and scroll down to Follower Settings:

  These settings change emails sent from your blog to followers.
  Logged out users __ Show follow button to logged out users.

  Checking this will present a follow button to logged out users in the bottom corner of their screen.
