  Hello,

  I’ve had several people say that they can’t find the subscribe tab to follow me? Also is there a direct link I can post that will take the to the subscribe option to make it easier?

  Thank you!

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

  Hi there,

  WordPress.com users should see the Follow option in their admin bar when they visit your site. Non-WordPress.com users will see a box in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen where they can enter their email address to receive updates. The easiest way to make this a bit more obvious to readers would be to include the Follow Blog widget at the top of your widgets section:

  Can you give that a try?

  Also is there a direct link I can post that will take the to the subscribe option to make it easier?

  You can use the following method to setup a direct link to your Follow Blog Widget:

  Direct Link to Subscribe to a WP.com Blog

  Then, once you have that link, you can put it in your menu as a custom link as described here:

  Let me know if that works on your side!
