    I can't comment on blogs hosted on wordpress. I am not wordpress user. I comment on wordpress blogs with my name, email url but comment never goes live on blog. When I try to comment again it shows 'Duplicate comment'

    Any suggestion????

    Sorry Bro, but could you ELABORATE on your question a little further? It's kind of confusing.

    Whose blogs? Yours? Others?
    Hosted on Wordpress.org? Or your own server?

    If it's a WordPress.com blog then the blog will show up at blogname.wordpress.com

    If it's a .org installation it'll be the domain that it's hosted on (such as www.problogger.net ).

    Is this happening on the former, the latter, or both?

    If there are two cases as you mentioned then it has to be .org installation. Because I don't remember I ever tried to comment on blogs like 'abcd.wordpress.com'

    Ok, it sounds like comments are pre-moderated for first-time commenters on those particular blog installations then. I'd wait for the blog owner to approve the comments and then you should be fine afterword. If you don't see them in a day or so, send the blog owner a polite email asking if Akismet "ate" your comment.

    What Dan said.
    I finally got serious with my wordpress blog today, and notice there is a feature in there to approve the first comment. You'll see your subsequent comments appear in real-time, thereafter.
