  Hello . I want to buy a domain name for my free wordpress blog from a local web hosting company and i’m wondering if doing that will allow me to install themes and plugins in my blog .

  Hi joseftriumf,

  Even if you upgrade to the Premium or Business plan, you still won’t be able to install plugins or themes.

  You should read more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org to help you decide what you should do next. There are pros and cons to continuing with WordPress.com or going with a self-hosted installation.

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org
