There is no FTP access to our free hosted WorPress.com blogs and we bloggers can't install plugins for security reasons. http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/ Also note that there is no upgrade you can purchase that allows FTP access and the ability to install plugins. Only those with WordPress.org installs can use plugins http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

Thanks! So do I download wordpress.org and import from wordpress.com and then I can use plugins?
You have to hire web host first.
Set up a WordPress.org install.
Install a theme and plugins.
Export your content out of your WordPress.com blog.
Import it into your WordPress.org install.
thank you very much, have a great weekend!
You're welcome and best wishes for a great weekend to you too.
