Identifying wordpress.com as wordpress article sites?

I was just looking thru my identified list and there are hundreds of thousands of wordpress.com subdomains in there identified as wordpress article sites.

    sorry i realize i must be mistaking something. i thought these were just the web 2.0 that we can sign up for and create our own subdomain. can we submit articles on some of these other wordpress subdomains that other people create or is it for leaving comments on their posts
    ?
    thanks

    is there a way to sort just self hosted wordpress blogs vs the wordprress.com stuff like this? i dont see the point in articles or comments on the subdomains of wordpress.com as they are all on the same ip

    add it to the blacklist/filter.

    are you referring to just comments on the subdomains or do some also allow you to add a contextual article?

    i guess i never really thought to much about this engine...when i tick it in the article section of the engines i was thinking it was for self hosted wordpress blogs that had the multi user, or whatever its called, to add an article, which would all be on different hosts/ip addies etc

    is that incorrect?

    Hey Sven is there a difference/benefit of adding the subdomain to the blacklist/filter vs just unticking it in the article section of engines?

    Is anyone using this for comments and/or articles and are you getting any ip diversity? I just rechecked a random selection of many thousands of subdomains and they are all on the same two ip addies, differed only by one digit on the d class

    This is normal, you must check the ip diversity of platform on your own. Likely, the free ones might be on similar ip's.

    Wordpress articles are on paid Wordpress.org scripts on paid hosting and wordpress.com will have the subdomains on the free sites, if I said that correctly.

    There is also way to upgrade from free .com, so could cause some confusion.


    Dude, it's like you barely skimmed my post before answering. We don't need anymore post count inflating bs replies like this on the forum, and to be blunt I don't like having my time wasted checking notifications and reading nonsense posts.
