WordPress.com handles SEO optimization for you. Beyond the normal optimizations like your sitemap, which you can view here:

We also have a Global Tagging system that search engines love and we ping out to all the major engines every time you update your blog.

No worries, we’ve got you covered.

Hello,

I am a bit confused. Great that wordpress takes care of SEO but they do also offer some sort of SEO pack?

When my friend clicks on posts and his posts appear, there are columns for:

SEO Title
SEO Keywords
SEO Description

I’ve assisted him with filling them in as he creates new posts.

I went to my site to show him and he was surprised that these do not exist. By the way, he paid for his site, mine is free.

So, please clear this up for me as I do not see those headings on my site.

Are you saying that WordPress fills in these descriptions on your behalf somewhere in the backend for SEO Title, SEO Keywords and
SEO Description so that’s why I do not need to fill it in?

or do I need to get these three columns in there somehow and fill them in?

Confused…

you are a freebie like me .. your friend bought the domain .. that’s the difference SEO plugins are additional and are usable only by rich peoples like your friend .. not us .. for us wordpress manages all SEO type things as it says above .. so if you still want to use SEO plugins you have to buy a domain you can’t use them on a free site like http://anything.wordpress.com/ as you own one .. best of luck ..

We cannot access metadata on free hosted WordPress.com blogs, whether or not we have a domain.

You are completely wrong and have misinformed faboulousfran thereby causing confusion.

@faboulousfran
There is no FTP access to WordPress.com free hosted blogs. We bloggers cannot install any plugins into free hosted WordPress.com blogs. Those are for WordPress.ORG installs which run on different software.

There is no upgrade that you can purchase from WordPress.com that provides FTP access , the ability to install plugins, third party themes and software into free hosted WordPress.com blogs.

No that’s not what kardotim was saying. Google does not require any of that information at all and has not required it for years now.
