  Hi,

  I need to add the SEO YOAST plugin to my wordpress blog but I am not able to. is this only for paid plans and if so which plan would be best for occasional posting and linking youtube videos in the blog posts (not uploading them on blog itself)

  thanks
  Zaid

  you can’t add plugin’s even if you upgrade – plugin’s are not allowed for security and reliability reasons – no FTP access either

  Yoast SEO is not needed here – your SEO is great if you use good blogging practices

  you can embed YouTube and some other videos in all plans here – no need to upgrade
