  Hi there,

  Please note that it is not possible to install plugins on WordPress.com, for security reasons. Plugins can only be installed on self-hosted WordPress blogs. If you are wondering how WordPress.com differs from WordPress.org, this support article explains the distinction:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  If you don’t find what you are looking for, just let me know what you’d like to achieve with a plugin, and I’ll see if I can help you find a solution.

  Please don’t give me the canned response because you didn’t even take the time to read the question. Let me re-ask the question and please read it before answering.

  I asked where can I get the plugins that are used on WordPress.com for my hosted site? Not all of the plugins are located at WordPress.org.

  You can activate Jetpack on your .org site, which allows features like easy video embedding, stats, and Twitter and Facebook sharing tools. VaultPress provides realtime, continuous backup and scans your website for security and performance. More information on both can be found at these links:

  WordPress.org has complete support and documentation sites for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress at:
