    Hi there,

    Yes, you can do drag and drop by using Plugins like Beaver Builder, Elementor, etc.
    But to be able to upload those Plugins, you will need an upgrade to Business plan. Or else, you’ll need to find the Themes that suitable with your need.

    For more info about the plan, you could visit this URL:

    Adding to the @pdrw07 reply

    Yes, you can create your site through WordPress with drag and dropping feature.

    You can try using Gutenberg (A new WordPress editor it is also drag and drop editor ). Gutenberg is a free editor that WordPress .com site have by default.

    The new editor brings with it a new, effortless page- and post-building experience. With blocks, you can quickly add and customize multiple media and visual elements that used to require shortcodes, custom HTML code, and embeds.

    But still if you feel that something is missing or you might be familiar with the other drag and drop plugins and want to use that then you can refer to the plugins mentioned by @pdrw07.

    Let us know if you have any doubts.

    Hope this helps

    Hello folks, Just adding that the new Block Editor (aka Gutenberg) in its current iteration, is a content editor. It is not yet a website builder like the ones @pdrw07 mentioned.

    what will be best to use

    Hey @shubhamgmath – If a WordPressdotcom user needs recommendations for plugins, then the best resource is the WordPress.org plugin directory with its ratings/# of users, or the org forums where they have more experience with plugins. If you have personal experience with a particular plugin, there’s no reason why you can’t mention it.

    I also noticed that @josephgny didn’t mention which WordPress “flavor” is intended, so just to make certain we’ve covered all the options…


    @josephgny     – WordPress comes in 2 flavors: the fully hosted WordPressdotcom platform (where we are ) and the open source WordPress software that you can download at https://wordpress.org This support guide explains some of the differences between them https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ and may help you decide which is better suited for your needs.

    Let us know if you have any other question about WordPressdotcom.
