  Please don’t use free themes for WordPress, I have faced many problems for my travel blog [link redacted by mod]

  I was using a free for close to 6 months, which created 800+ posts on my blog and accessed my database as well.

  @rahulrnair123 there are many beautiful free and premium themes here on WordPressdotcom that you can activate through your Dashboard or our Theme Showcase which are available to all users.

  However, in order to upload a 3rd party theme to use here on WordPressdotcom, you will need to purchase the WordPressdotcom Business upgrade plan. https://wordpress.com/pricing/

  Alternatively you can host your own install of the WordPress.org software.

  More about the differences between WordPress.org and WordPressdotcom can be found in this support doc: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Let us know if you need more information.
