  I think I need to upgrade to 2.7 because I am trying to add a plug in and wp admin doesn’t have plugins on the list http://www.suzannesmomsblog.com. So how do I upgrade. Alternatively, how do I get a plug in. I want the yoast plug in

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

  Hi there,

  The Yoast SEO plugin is a great plugin!

  However, installing your own plugins is not an available feature for WordPress.com sites.

  You would need to create a self-hosted site using the WordPress.org version of WordPress in order to install plugins like Yoast.

  There is good news, though.

  WordPress.com sites are already optimized very well for SEO, and chances are, much of what you would get out of the Yoast plugin, is already taken care of for you by default.

  For more info, check out the links on this article:

  Hope this helps.
