  We cannot add Disqus to Free hosted WordPress.com blogs. We have a commenting system built into to our blogs and it’s the only one we can use.

  To set up defaults for commenting go to this page > Settings Discussion
  instructions
  To override default comment settings on any individual post or page and enable or disable comments see here.

  Any paid Premium feature to overcome this? or is the only solution if you really want Disqus to go via WP.org and host elsewhere?

  @rickyvanovich: To my knowledge, there is no upgrade to have Disqus on a WordPress.com blog… except if you have hundreds of thousands of visits per month and can afford WordPress.com VIP.

  No. Disqua cannot be used on free hosted WordPress.com blogs period.

  Yes. See WordPress.com vs WordPress.org: The Differences and Moving to WordPress.org
