  Hi everyone,

  Im new to wordpress and ive started with the free version and i am now testing the Blogger supercharge upgrade for free. However, there are a few things missing. I cant see plugins, i cant download and add new themes, as there is no upload or add new, in appearance, themes . The customization is also very limited.

  Im not sure if this is just because i am using the free version or there is something wrong?

  Please help!! as i don’t want to upgrade if i cant do these things.

  Kind Regards,

  Daniella Smithers

  You need a domain, hosting and the software.
  See here for the differences between WordPress.com & WordPress.org

  And if you need help about WordPress.org installs/sites, please, go to WordPress.org forum.
