    Hi DP members.

    I realized I can't display adsense or affiliate links on my WordPress blog like blogger. Now, I wish to upgrade so that I can add affiliate ads.

    How exactly can I do this. I checked the 'upgrade' section on WordPress but got little info.

    My blog is http://woculus.com, and what I need is to display affiliate links.

    Thank you.

    @IAreOwn, Where should I host it, and how much do you think it'll cost?

    You can grab a hosting account at a place such as http://www.hostgator.com/. I think there's also free web hosts available out there, but not sure of any specific URLs. Would have to Google it.

    I don't recommend you use a free web host. If your budget is low there are many quality shared hosting companies out there for only a few dollars per month.
