  Hey everyone,

  I’m a web designer and recently started using WordPress software (from wordpress.org) as a CMS for my non-tech inclined clients (and they love it!). Now, I’m hosting my blog (http://debraweiss.wordpress.com) from WordPress.com and wondered if I could optimize my blog for SEO rankings. I understand WordPress already ensures we receive good rankings but I wondered if I can include meta tags somehow.

  I understand there are paid versions of WordPress.com. Would I have to purchase an upgrade to change my meta tags? Or is it available in the free version? I’ve searched the forums, the web, the faqs but I can’t seem to find a clear answer. Thank you so much for any help in advance. :)

  WP.com blogs are already about the most optimized on the planet, provided you use tags and categories appropriately.
