    For those who don't know, Wordpress.COM lets you make your on blog and they host it for you. Simple stuff.
    Wordpress.ORG gives you the files so you can host your own blog

    Can I put ad's (any kind, I dont care) on my wordpress.COM blog? All my content is there and I don't want to switch hosts just to put some ads on there.

    Many thanks.

    I don't think it's allowed under WordPress.com rules. I know AdSense definitely can't be used on the free hosted platform. I shall double check and let you know.

    Edit: Having just checked the TOS I can't see anything that prevents you from using ads, but as I said you'll probably have to use an alternative to AdSense.

    I have tried to find a way to integrate on a test blog, and nothing jumped out at me. Maybe if you pay the extra fee to edit the CSS you can stick in something there? Not sure, I'm not the best with CSS.
