  I want Yoast, and other things, on my blog, but I’m on a .com site rather than a .org. Do I have to start the blog again on a .org site to be able to get plugins? I want to start updating my blog regularly but it seems a shame if no one’s going to see it.

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

  WordPress.com blogs have more SEO, and therefore attract more readers, than WordPress.org blogs, regardless of what plugins you use. B ut if you insist on plugins, then you’ll have to buy hosting for $120 a year and up, purchase a custom domain, install software from WordPress.org, import your old blog contents into that blog, and then set the WordPress.com blog to private.
