    Thanks again…yes, I am using ConverKit — alright… will see about jetpack – it just has so many other things I don’t need… like everything else it does… ?? — don’t want confusion with other plug-ins…

    Thanks.. All best.

    ?? – sorry to be obtuse…for some reason I am having difficulty expressing what I thought to be a simple thing…my bad.

    As I understand it – one has a blog. then you get followers and – here: follow other blogs.

    There are two ways – one you can sign up and have other sign up via EMAIL.

    The other is to PRESS a Follow Button – and provide one for others.

    This is the one I am trying to enable on my new blog, it is .ORG and the domain is hosed on siteground.

    In the old system one used READER. I would assume there’d be a number of simple plug-ins for this function.

    As for whom – why there are many blogs… in fact I successfully followed a few in the old system. Right now on my old gblgos page in .COM – I can see them in the reader area.

    But I’ve created a new one. I’d like to rejoin a few of those blogs…join new ones and invite BLOG to follow mine.

    Sorry – I am a newbie here: but would have thought this so basic…perhaps it like me, a piano, teacher, teaching a child to read music and clap rhythms… ??

    Is jetpack really the only plug-in for this?… if you don’t have a .COM account you can;t have follow blog functions?

    Thanks for your time! I feel like a dolt…:)

    though still slightly mystified – the jet link above is for wordpress.com / Feedly needlessly complicated with things I don’t need – and following blogs is such a basic function – I was expecting en extremely simple answer… have a good one…:)

    Thank you for your time.

    I am not using jetpack at present. My new domain – thefantasypower.com does not show up on my .com list of domains because it is self-hosted…created later/elsewhere. So I don’t know if jetpack will do anything.

    This really should be a basic question! – How to follow blogs, organize blogs you follow, etc. I am new to this, but is it not a basic function? – thanks.

    I am happy to entertain the use of any plug-in that may be useful for this! I tried googling,, etc… but can find nothing, so I appreciate your help. Can you recommend a plug-in for this? – anything.

    For my email follow type – I am using convertKit – but that is the other type f follow – i.e. email.

    Thanks again. Simple: How to follow blogs (not the email style)…for self-hosted .org blogs…

    Best.
