  I don’t really need or want all of the feature that come with an upgrade. Can a person buy just more space? I will be adding some video soon to share, but not really wanting to involve another vendor. (Like youTube…)

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

  Sorry but there are no new stand alone upgrades for additional space. See here https://en.support.wordpress.com/space-upgrade/

  You can view all wordpress.com plan features here https://wordpress.com/pricing/ Add a plan for each of your sites here: http://store.wordpress.com/plans/.

  The Personal plan includes another 3GB of storage (total 6GB).
  WordPress.com Premium https://store.wordpress.com/plans/premium/ includes another 10 GB of extra storage, for a total of 13 GB.
  WordPress.com Business https://store.wordpress.com/plans/business/ includes unlimited storage space.

  Thanks for the fast response. I didn’t realize I could embed links….at least I won’t have to point readers to a whole new service.

  Oh really? Maybe I can provide some helpful information about videos.

  re: embedding videos
  The video embeds in posts and pages that WordPress.com supports for all of our blogs – no upgrade required are found here.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/

  Accepted Filetypes are here https://en.support.wordpress.com/accepted-filetypes/#video

  Video shortcodes are here http://en.support.wordpress.com/shortcodes/#video

  Full instructions for adding and playing your own videos can be found on the VideoPress support page. http://support.wordpress.com/videopress/

  VideoPress is included with the WordPress.com Premium and WordPress.com Business plans.

  As a workaround, keep in mind that you can also upload your media to another service like youtube videos and insert it into your posts from there.

  For youtube embedding into wordpress.COM blogs see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/youtube/

  For using the shortcode see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/youtube/#embedding-with-a-shortcode
