  Hi Anna!

  The hashtag instructions you’re looking at are for WordPress.org blogs – your site is hosted by WordPress.com.

  As it stands, WordPress.com sites don’t allow plugins. I’m going to tag this for staff attention though, just in case there’s another way to incorporate clickable hashtags :)

  You can add hashtags to the Publicize message that goes to Facebook, Twitter, etc. when you publish a post. While writing your post, look for the Publish module (in the classic editor; in the new one I think it’s under Sharing). Click Edit under the Publicize options. There you can edit the message included with the link to your post. You can add hashtags to that message which will work on Facebook, Twitter, G+ and Tumblr.

  I don’t know of any way to use hashtags on WordPress.com, though. The same effect is achieved by adding regular tags to your posts: https://en.support.wordpress.com/topics/
