  Hi there,

  If you’re looking to install the Yoast plugin, WordPress.com sites don’t have that functionality. However, it’s something you are able to do with WordPress.org sites.

  This thread should give you some more information: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/can-i-install-plugins-on-wordpresscom-site?replies=13

  You don’t need Yoast in any case. We already have excellent SEO built into our sites by default on WordPress.com, which generally works much better than the SEO provided by that plugin. You can see here for more information:
