 * I’m so confused?? I don’t see the Publicize feature anywhere! I’ve checked the
   dashboard and the Setting for “shared”, but I see nothing.
 * Am I missing something here?

 * Arrrrgh!
 * I saw wordpress add about their new features:
    [http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/](http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/)
 * Then checked my profile, page of just published article before and after publication,
   and i didn’t found publicize anywhere.
 * Then decided to search from google about it and found this thread. OK, started
   wondered same thing as i.. -but this is becoming hilarious when reading answers
   to it.
 * Others haven’t even heard of it. 😀

 * It’s a feature of wordpress.COM wordpress hosted websites with a URL like something.
   wordpress.com
 * The support article you linked to is from their support forum
 * This is wordpress.ORG
 * publicize is a plugin that exists on the .COM platform only, not the .ORG self-
   hosted inatsll

 * I have two WordPress Blogs. One that my website company set up for me (www.elm-
   atl.com/blog) and one that I set up (www.iZiggATL.WordPress.com). They are each
   for two different topics.
 * My iZiggATL site has the Publicize Feature. To tell you where to find it, if 
   it’s available on your Blog: Login to your Dashboard / Click on Settings in your
   Left Nav Bar / Click on Sharing… this is where you will find the Publicize Features.
 * I, however, do not have this feature on my ELM Blog. Can anyone tell me why not,
   if I can add it, and how to add it to this blog?

 * [http://www.iZiggATL.WordPress.com](http://www.iZiggATL.WordPress.com) is, once
   more, a WordPress.COM feature.
 * If you’re hosting on .com you get it. If not, there’s no plugin for use on a 
   self-hosted install at this time.

 * It’s because it is only available to wordpress.COM users, not wordpress.ORG users.

 * I guess the better question is how do I know who is the host of my ELM Blog? 
   WordPress.com or WordPress.org? I didn’t create the blog, I maintain it. Therefore,
   I do not know which it was created under.
 * My answer could be very obvious, since I do not have the Publicize feature.

 * WordPress.org doesn’t host anyone. They provide software which you install onto
   your own servers.
 * Viewing the page source of your ELM blog, I see calls directly to [http://elm-atl.com/blog/wp-content/themes/twentyten/&#8230](http://elm-atl.com/blog/wp-content/themes/twentyten/&#8230);.
 * So I know from this that you are, indeed, self hosted. As for who your host is…
   you really should know this, since you’re paying them.
