Website pages
-
Can I remove the “Follow’ button from all my website pages? It is a free build website and not a blog.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

No, you cannot remove the action bar and people subscribe to follow websites just as they follow blogs.
In fact, a blog is a website. The difference between blog and website is simply structure and semantics.
A blog is a post based website designed for interactive communication. As the posts are frequently updated and appear on the front page of the site it’s very attractive to search engines.
What most people call a website is merely a page based site that functions as a one way noticeboard. As the structure is page based and as pages are for static content that rarely changes, and as pages do not have RSS feeds, and as others do not backlink to pages, it is not as attractive to search engines as a post based blog structured site is.
Any WordPress blog can be restructured from being post based to being page based – no upgrade required. For greater clarity read > http://en.support.wordpress.com/using-wordpress-to-create-a-website/

Thank you. I appreciate the quick response. According to ‘Help’ it appears that ‘Follow’ can be removed on some types of site. I only wanted to simplify the pages and not have the temptation to Follow. What would they get if they did add their email and follow?
