  I am trying to add a modest shop to my site saintlorca.com

  However
  On my dashboard there is no plugin section. My site is hosted through wordpress.

  Is a shop possible here?

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

  Blogger installed plugin capability does not exist on WordPress.COM blogs and there is no upgrade you can purchase here that changes that reality. You are confusing WordPress.ORG and WordPress.COM. For that type of functionality you’d need a self-hosted site running on a paid web hosting service.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Or you can buy the annually renewed WordPress.com Business Bundle upgrade which has an e-commerce component. https://en.support.wordpress.com/ecommerce/
