  Howdy Jeremy!

  Unfortunately, WordPress.com doesn’t allow third-party plugins, only internal ones; however, there’s a lot done in the background of WordPress.com with SEO.

  Learn about them at the following links:

  To quote from the first link:

  Myth: I need a plugin for SEO.

  Fact: WordPress.com has great SEO right out of the box — you don’t have to do anything extra. In fact, WordPress takes care of 80-90 percent of the mechanics of SEO for you, according to Matt Cutts, head of Google’s webspam team. All of our themes are optimized for search engines, which means they are designed to make it easy for the Googlebot (and other search engines) to crawl through them and discover all the content.
