    How can people subscribe without signing up by “following”? Is there an option for signing up by giving your email address only? Some people say they don’t want to do more passwords.

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

    Hi there!

    We try to make it as easy as possible for your readers to subscribe to your blog with or without a WordPress.com account. There are some follow options built into your site already. Anyone who is logged into a WordPress.com account will see this Follow button at the top of your site:

    Anyone who is not logged into a WordPress.com account will see this at the bottom of their browser window when visiting your site:

    In addition, we have two widgets that you can add to give your readers easy ways to follow your blog.

    1. The Follow Blog widget adds a box where viewers can subscribe to your site via email.

    2. The Follow Button widget adds a button that WordPress.com users can click to follow your site.

    The email options will not require your followers to create a WordPress.com account. However, they will need to confirm that their subscription by clicking a link in a confirmation email from WordPress.com.

    Let me know if I can help with anything else!
