No Plug-ins drop down menu in my dashboard?

Hi there, Sorry but im a newby to wordpress and in all the info pages online to assist you with how to add new plugins they show the “plugins” drop down menu appearing between the “appearances” and “users” drop down menu in the administration panel. However i do not have this option. My wordpress blog is hosted by Go Daddy which i know it has to be hosted to be able to add plug ins but it still doesn’t appear. Can anybody help me?
