  Hi there,

  First, the Premium Plan is $8.25 a month, billed yearly, so you will pay $99 to add the plan to your site for one year.

  – Do we get a wordpress email account?

  WordPress.com is not an email provider. If you add a custom domain to your site (included in Premium) you can set up an email forwarding address that forwards emails to your existing email account, or you can connect an email account that you set up with a third-party provider.

  Add Email

  – Can I add google adsense?
  – Can I include banners?

  We do not allow Google Adsense or banner ads on WordPress.com. You are welcome to apply for our WordAds program if you monetise your site. That is the only advertising program allowed here.

  – Can I add a category to a page?

  You don’t need an upgrade to do this. Category pages can be used on any WordPress.com site, free or upgraded.

  – Am I able to add videos?

  You can embed videos from a number of services like Youtube or Vimeo on any WordPress.com site, free or upgraded. However, if you want to upload video to your media library and host it directly on your site you will need the Premium or Business plan.
