    There are various plugins that allow for Follow options. Jetpack (http://jetpack.me/) offers a way for users to subscribe to your site, as well as other features you might have liked when your site was on WordPress.com.

    The Follow option on WordPress.com works a little differently because you can follow a blog on WordPress.com directly via the Reader. (You can follow other blogs via the Reader as well, but they have to be added manually).

    For self-hosted blogs, there’s no Reader, so visitors will need to either follow via social media (Facebook, etc.) or email.
