  I can’t install WooCommerce plugin even though its free. Guess I have to upgrade to have plugins on my site, but that’s just bad..

  You need to have a wordpress.ORG site on paid hosting https://wordpress.ORG/hosting to run woocommerce. You cannot run it on a wordpress.COM hosted blog.

  This guide will explain how to move your WordPress.com site to another hosting platform: Moving to a Self-Hosted WordPress Site

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different 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/

  If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there.

  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page

  You are confusing wordpress.com hosted blogs and wordpress.org software installs. There is no upgrade that changes what I will post below.

  There is no FTP access https://en.support.wordpress.com/ftp-access/ and no blogger installed plugin capability. https://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/ Blogger installed plugins are not permitted here at WordPress.com for various security reasons. No upgrade changes that reality.
