    WordPress.com has a lot of built-in features that were inspired by popular plugins. Chances are, the feature you are looking for is already there! You can search our support site via this link:

    Home

    For any features on WordPress.com, the support page will explain how to set it up.

    It is not possible to install plugins on WordPress.com, for security reasons. Plugins can only be installed on self-hosted WordPress blogs. If you are wondering how WordPress.com differs from WordPress.org, this support article explains the distinction:

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

    As previously mentioned, plugins are not allowed on WordPress.com sites.

    The link I provided gives a clear explanation of the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org:

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

    If you’d like to move your site from WordPress.com to WordPress.org, the following link will assist you:

    As we only support sites hosted here at WordPress.com, all issues with the new site – including the importing of the file – must be taken to the WordPress.org support community:

    If you’d like assistance moving your WordPress.com site to WordPress.org, we have a service called Guided Transfer that does all the work for you. Check it out to see if it’s right for you:
