  Can wordpress blogs be totally backed up automatically along with ALL comments by outsiders with a plugin? Also, how deep can a WP basic paid plan go? Can it require people to enter an email and authenticate identity – in order to leave the comment?

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

  hi,

  Can wordpress blogs be totally backed up automatically along with ALL comments by outsiders with a plugin?

  You don’t need to as WordPress handles backup for you.
  Backups
  If your blog is hosted here at WordPress.com, we handle all necessary backups. If a very large meteor were to hit all the WordPress.com servers and destroy them beyond repair, all of your data would still be safe and we could have your blog online within a couple of days (after the meteor situation died down, of course).

  Can it require people to enter an email and authenticate identity – in order to leave the comment?

  Yes. See screenshot below.
