wget is used to stuff from internet and yum is a installer in bsd

OP, FreeBSD has wget in its ports collection. You can compile it and install it by going to /usr/ports/ftp/wget directory and typing "make install clean". There is no yum in ports. Hopefully, my response was helpful to you.
I love FST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yum stands for the Yellowdog Update Manager it is the standard package interface for Redhat based Linux distributions. The reason you cannot find it in FreeBSD is that you are using tutorials for the wrong Operating system. You have two choices. The easiest one is to switch to a branch of the operating system in the tutorial i.e. Redhat/Fedora or the second choice is to find tutorials that deal with configuring a seedbox under FreeBSD. The question I have is why would you configure a seedbox using FreeBSD when there are SELinux distro's available which offer a high level of security (ie Fedora) but are far less awkward to configure than FreeBSD which after all is designed for large server farms.

I feel comfortable with jails in freebsd than SELinux in linux distros.
