  Hi all, I am starting a new blog/website and would like to know if the personal plan can capture email subscriber lists? Is the plugin available? Does the personal plan allow for affiliate marketing links? Looking to start small with Personal and hopefully expand to business. TIA

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

  Hi there, welcome to WordPress.com!

  if the personal plan can capture email subscriber lists?

  Do you mean the people who sign up via email using the default WordPress.com system? If so, every site can do that, and that doesn’t require a paid plan. You can see your own email subscribers here: https://wordpress.com/people/email-followers/perfectlyinpieces101678002.wordpress.com

  Is the plugin available?

  Sadly, only sites with the Business Plan can upload custom plugins. However, all sites do get access to some plugins automatically.

  If you state what you’re trying to do though, there may be some alternatives, so feel free to ask.

  Does the personal plan allow for affiliate marketing links?

  It does, but bare in mind that only some code is supported on the WordPress.com Business Plan. All the detail on that and more can be found here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/monetize-your-site/#affiliate-linking
