  Hi,

  Can you please let me know under which plan can I sell products using WordPress? Also how do I add the Add to Cart button to the products on the page – if you can include links to documentation/videos that I can read/watch that would be much appreciated. Thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi
  That sort of activity is not allowed on WordPress.com – no plans support shopping carts, The only e-commerce options for sites hosted here are discussed in this document:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/monetize-your-site/

  If you want to use WordPress as the basis for your e-commerce site, there are many plugins and options available for sites hosted by other hosting services. You will find a lot of information about that at the WordPress.org forums and in the WordPress.org documentation. You notice i have switched from .com to .org! There are many differences between sites hosted here at WordPress.COM and self hosted sites. This document describes some of those differences:

  Since you asked specifically about shopping carts, here is a link that will show you that you have many, many options available to you in the self hosted WordPress world!
  https://wordpress.org/search/shopping+cart

  This in by no means an exhaustive reply, whole books can be written on this topic. I urge you to head on over to the WordPress.ORG site and research the many options available. The good folks in the forums there can help you with any other questions you may have.

  Good luck in your venture!
