    I seen some sites say that you can add adsense to wordpress and other ads and others say no you can not add adsense.I do not want to blog for free. I think wordpress is better than blogger. What makes me wonder is this i seen a plugin for adsense and but i also found thing on wordpress saying no affiliate no adsense etc.

    You can use adsense if you are hosting it yourself, you can't if you host it with wordpress.

    You can use the WordPress software for free at wordpress.org. You just need a domain name and a hosting account. Most good hosting services have it so you can install wordpress right from your control panel quickly.

    If you are serious about blogging, this is the best way to go. If you insisting on free hosted blogs, stick with blogger.com, it is easier to add stuff like Adsense and affiliate sites. However, it does not give you as much freedom as self-hosting a WordPress blog.

    I agree with allout. If the blog is going to be serious, definitely host it yourself. It gives you so much more flexibility and safety.
