Hi there,
We do not offer a specific block for “popular posts” but it is an option if you install the functionality as a plugin instead:
https://wordpress.com/plugins/?s=popular+posts
Please note that plugins can’t be added under the Premium Plan, so this would require an upgrade to our Business Plan, but it would be a big boost in your ability to customize your site since it would allow you to upload any plugin or theme “designed for WordPress” of which there are literally thousands to choose from.
WordPress.com provides users with a great experience out of the box. From superb SEO to social media sharing to custom web fonts, even those with advanced needs can find themselves well-equipped without installing plugins or custom themes. But what if you want to take your website to the next level? That’s where the Business plan comes in. Whether you’re a restaurant looking to let your dinerIf upgrading is not in your budget, you could consider creating your own “popular posts” block manually. You can do this by determining from your site stats which posts are getting the most traffic, and adding a category or tag like “popular” which will allow you to filter just those posts into our Blog Posts block or Query Loop block, both of which allow you to create custom blog posts displays.
We cover these blocks in a recent webinar so you can see them in action:
Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any more questions.

Hi again,
I forgot to add that I really like the job you have done in customizing your site. It’s quite a bit different than the demo for the theme you started from: https://vivredemo.wordpress.com/
Kudos for your good work here!
