What is "Premium"?
-
What does premium package actually do, and HOW do I use it?
The problem I am having is that your site has NO information, about just WHAT “premium packages” actually are.
I need to know what I would be paying $99.00 for.
Does this price include things like “search engine “optimization””, and payment options, for customers to download my “digital products”, for a fee?
None of this, or other information, is listed in the home page.
I need this information, to decide if I want to upgrade my “account”.
Can you help????
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Did you read my reply to you here?

Read my reply in your first thread please.
WordPress.com provides free blogs and hosts them free of charge. There are no bandwidth charges. All WordPress.com blogs come with 3000 megabytes (~3 GBs) of space for storing uploaded files and images. Free features are listed here https://en.wordpress.com/features/
See here for details of all 3 plans http://store.wordpress.com/bundles/ offered by WordPress.com.
Premium bundle details http://store.wordpress.com/plans/premium/
Business bundle details http://store.wordpress.com/plans/business/You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard and purchase upgrades at > Store > My Upgrades
Your billing history will be at Dashboard > Store > Billing History
Your options for payment are found here http://en.support.wordpress.com/payment/Note that the free plan and the Premium plan do not allow you to upload your own themes or plugins. WordPress.com blogs cannot be equipped for eCommerce transactions unless they have the $299. per year Business upgrade. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/ecommerce-is-now-available-on-wordpresscom?replies=1
See here for ecommerce details http://en.support.wordpress.com/ecommerce/A self-hosted WordPress site is what you want. You need to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up a WordPress.org install. WordPress.org offers free software that you can install on a web server. You can upload and install themes and plugins, run ads, conduct ecommerce and edit the database. Learn about the differences here. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

http://store.wordpress.com/plans/premium/ lists all the options that are included.
As for the “how”; you go into your WP dashboard, then to Store and you will see the option to purchase the Premium package.
-
True but there is no ability to set up a pay for use site here except by purchasing an annually renewable $299. per year Business upgrade.

I wish someone would explain all of this computer “gibberish” to me, in simple English.
The kind of English we use with family, friends, and neighbors.
All I am looking for a simple way to place my short stories on various “search engines”, but I need directions, and instructions, in a form of English which I, as an admitted NON-computer programmer, can understand.
-
The only directions I do not find, on this site, are directions for setting up a blog, to allow visitors to pay-per-view.
Why is this option NOT listed? https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/how-to-use-site-for-profit?replies=2#post-2096214That option does not exist on any WordPress.COM hosted blog. You need to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up your own WordPress.ORG software install to have that kind of site. http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

How I wish someone would explain all of this “gibberish” to me in PLAIN, SIMPLE, ENGLISH.
I just don’t speak “computer”.
-
What I typed is in plain English. You want a pay for view site and you cannot have a site like that here at WordPress.COM.
-
Thank you for finally using PLAIN English.
Too many people, on the internet REFUSE to speak this plainly.
Thank you for that!

You are welcome. I am a Canadian and we speak plain English very well. That said, we must all acknowledge that jargon exists in any specialized area and doing anything knew involves a learning curve and a need to master the relevant jargon.
WordPress.COM is a turnkey operation for those who are not into coding. Self hosting a WordPress.ORG software install is more sophisticated and mastering the use of the software is not easily done. Here is the comparison:

Edit: replace doing anything knew with doing anything new noting that I am visually challenged and I apologize for the error.
