  I can’t figure out how to change the hover color on my blog post titles. I have looked at other discussions and have seen people give examples of CSS code, but that seems to only work if you are paying. Is there a way to do it for free?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I don’t think there is a way for it to be free. You can play around with different themes that have different styling but if you want custom styles for that site you need to look into the Custom design upgrade.

  Ok. Thank you! I had seen on some themes a way to change it in the theme options, but my current theme doesn’t have that. But that’s ok. Thank you for your help.

  There is no way to chnage a hover color on posts titles free of charge. A few themes do provide for changing font color in the Blog Title and/or optional Tagline and/or links but not many. In the majority of themes font changes to font families, colors and size in the blog title, tagline, menu, post titles, page titles, categories and tags, widget headings, comments and links cannot be done without purchasing an annually renewable custom design upgrade and doing the required CSS editing. http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/03/24/color-customisable-themes/

  There are three ways to change fonts on WordPress.com free hosted blogs.

  (1) Changing font families, colors and size in text in posts or pages either post by post or page by page by coding into the HTML editor. http://en.support.wordpress.com/editors/font-size-color/

  (2) Changing font colors in text in posts or pages either post by post or page by page using the #4 icon (Select text color – change the text color) in Row 2 the Visual editor. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#row-2

  (3) Changing all font families, colors and sizes throughout the whole blog by purchasing an annually renewable Custom Design upgrade http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/
