   Hello,

   I am writing regarding two issues:
   1) how to add google analytics to my blog placeexplorer.wordpress.com. I understood it is not possible for the Blog I have now and I wanted to ask if there are other themes that support google analytics or how exactly can I use it in wordpress (do I need to pay to have my own domain, do I need to change to another theme etc.).

   2)How exactly can I get free website content (webmaster tools)? For example I would like to add daily content for my Blog from http://www.thefreedictionary.com/lookup.htm. They explain there is a code I have to copy and paste to get daily quotes and free short news or games, but I do not know where to paste it. Is it possible to do that in my current theme? If not, how do I know which themes support that?

   Thank you very much for your understanding.

   Regards,

   Irina Petre

   Google Analytics is not available to add to WordPress.com blogs, but we do offer a number of stats. Please see this help page to see what stats we offer.

   It's not possible to automatically generate content from other sites onto your blog. You will have to do this manually. Please note that there are no restrictions if you setup a self-hosted WordPress.org blog instead of a WordPress.com blog, but there are some added responsibilities. We have hosting recommendations at the following link if you are interested:

   thank you very much for these clarifications - I will probably consider WordPress.org sometime in the future, when I'll have more time and experience with my blog:)
