MyBlog Followers

  • I have the Blog Followers button on my page and it says I have 11,000+ people following my blog, but I have no emails. I can’t even see (statistically) who’s all following me out of that number. I put this widget in place to establish a way to collect emails.

    Can someone give me assistants with this? Where are the emails being stored? Is this just a cool button with no tracking of information?

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

  • Hi conscience480,

    The email addresses of your subscribers are not made public to you, in order to protect their privacy.
    However, if you’d like to collect names, email addresses, or other data for your own e-mail list, you can use a Contact Form: https://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/

    Happy blogging!

  • Thank you so much for responding.
    That seems so counter intuitive to a subscribers list. In fact it’s an incredibly huge hinderence to the marketing of my blog. Are all of the blog themes limited in this way?

  • Hi consience480,

    we are very new to blogging and have the same problem, only have of our followers are shown with their mails. we don’t know who are other.
    Could you let us know if you have more clarity on the subject?

    thanks.

  • One of the biggest issues with my problem is that my blog does not give me access to plugins without paying a fee. Are all of the word press seems setup this way. I see so many tutorial videos about the importance of plugins yet I have no access to them. Can I change my blogs theme so that I can get free access to install plugins?

  • Hello,

    WordPress.com doesn’t support installation of plugins. On the other hand, WordPress.org is a self-hosted WordPress solution where you can install any plugins you’d like.

    I am including a couple of links that explain more about the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org:

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

    The $64,000 Question: WordPress.com or WordPress.org?

    Cheers :)
