  Dude, that site linked to your name isn’t a WordPress.com blog. I think you’re in the wrong forum and need to be over at WordPress.org.

  You lost me raincoaster; my blog is http://blog.emealsforyou.com which I host on my domain. The admin is handled by wordpress.com, or at least I think it is, that is where all my “stuff” is. I might be mistaken so please advise. thanks again

  It will save time in future if you change the link on your profile page under “website” to a direct link to your blog. That way we will be able to see it immediately.

  I haven’t noticed any drop in hits, other than the day OF the DoS issue, and that applies to five blogs here at WP.com. You’ve only posted once since, though. It’s natural that hits drop off a cliff on days you don’t post.
