  I have following link attached to all comments – https://polldaddy.com/js/rating/rating.js
  I’m facing this issue for a while now and I have tried to remove it but somehow it doesn’t go away!! Please help me out here. It’s really annoying to see thing link in all the comments. I wish I could attach a screenshot here to give a clearer picture. I hope members can help me out on this. Thanks in advance.

  Hello @charusworld,

  Is your blog using any of Polldaddy.com’s services? Looking at their FAQ, it says the links you’re describing are automatically inserted into WordPress.com sites that use their polls and surveys.

  Polldaddy.com will only remove these links if the user upgrades their account. But, as you can see here, upgrades are quite expensive.

  Please let me know if you have any other questions.

  Best,
  Travis

  Hey again,

  I’m seeing now that Sarah gave you some very helpful suggestions in a duplicate thread. Probably some combination of our two answers would be best, although if she’s correct in that there is a free solution that would obviously be best:

  Good luck with everything,
  Travis
