 * I’m sorry, I feel like this is an incredibly simple problem, but I’m having trouble
   with the first step of the installation instructions. Can I use this plug-in 
   on a free wordpress blog?
 * When I go to the plugins tab on my site there is no apparent way to upload to
   any plugins folder. Instead I am asked if I “Want to add a store to your site?”
 * What am I doing wrong?

 * Hi CTLS,
 * Glad to help:
 * “can I use this plug-in on a free wordpress blog?”
 * Yes, USP is a free plugin that can be used on any WordPress-powered site.
 * “Instead I am asked if I ‘Want to add a store to your site?'”
 * USP does not include any such text, so it sounds like the issue is with a different
   plugin, perhaps something that deals with e-commerce or stores or something. 
   USP is all about front-end posting.
