  Hi
  I’m using a free wordpress.com blog and in my ‘command centre’ there are no links options.
  I have several other such weblogs and they have ‘Links’ in between ‘Media’ and ‘Pages’.

  How do I get ‘Links’ to become available, please?

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

  You probably mean a Link Manager. On the wordpress.com platform you have a Blogroll, https://wordpress.com/support/blogroll/

  Yes, you’re right – but it doesn’t appear on my list!

  Seems that I can’t post an image, so you’ll just have to cut and paste the web address to see what I mean…

  First you must add the Links Widget, https://wordpress.com/support/widgets/links-widget/

  Thanks, but I’ve sorted it now.
  This is what I needed:

  Add New Links
  You can manage a blogroll (a set of links) using the Links menu.
  To access this menu, add /wp-admin/link-manager.php to the end of your site address.
  For example, yourgroovysite.wordpress.com/wp-admin/link-manager.php.

  Once I did that and added a new link the link to LINKS appeared on my menu at the left of the screen.

  Cheers!
