  Hey there,

  You won’t find a plugin tab in the dashboard because plugins such as Backup Buddy are installed and utilized solely for those with self-hosted WordPress.ORG installs:

  The good news is that there are plenty of plugins already bundled and configured within the WordPress.COM blog/site. You can find out about bundled WordPress.com plugins here:

  Please let me know if you have any questions.

  Thanks!
