We offer a Facebook Like Box for pages (not profiles) that allows you to follow favorite pages. Our widgets are created within the framework of the Facebook social plugin, and in order to subscribe to someone's profile, you need to click through to facebook.com and then you use the subscription option, if available.

As the Facebook Like button here has the lredirecting URL,
https://www.facebook.com/<strong>plugins</strong>/likebox.php?....
Means: You people have modified Facebook like plugin to make it work for WordPress.com.

Please modify that widget and add a subscribe.php instead of like.php to create a new Facebook subscribe (to profile) button compatible with WordPress.com.
The profile badge we use is just like a redirecting image. There's no button in it.

1) I have removed the link to the Facebook Social Plugin page from our support article, correct that it was not necessary.

2) As for the link to that page that appears in the footer of the Facebook Like Box, the appearance of that widget is determined by Facebook itself, and it's loaded through an iFrame (you can modify a couple of parameters when using the widget on WordPress.com).

It is possible that some users might be confused, but it does not seem to cause a significant amount of confusion at the moment. We can direct those users who are confused to the relevant support articles about the Facebook Like Box and Facebook badges - that's why we have forums, to help people who are confused or have questions :)

I've noticed that even the link in support document http://en.support.wordpress.com/facebook-integration/#facebook-like-button is referring to the plugins page. First correct it and replace it with https://www.facebook.com/badges/.
Secondly, wherever the Facebook Like widget is used there's a credit link in it. For instance see the site http://jcrylequotes.com/ (fifth widget in the right sidebar). If you're not allowed to remove credits then ask them to replace that with the link https://www.facebook.com/badges/.

And if you have specific suggestions about how to clarify the confusion (beyond the usual explanation of the differences between .com and .org), those are very welcome, too.

@amnagillani: the links to Facebook integration and other sharing options that @1tess and @timethief have provided should get you on the right track. If you still have any questions about Facebook sharing, please don't hesitate to post here.

In fact the Facebook widget shows the link http://developers.facebook.com/plugins/?footer=1 as credits, which is confusing the folks who are trying to get a Facebook like badge or profile badge because those plugins are not available for WordPress.com. Shouldn't WordPress do something about it?
