  • Add topic to favorites

  Trying to add badges to my blog & also want to monetize my blog to possibly earn a couple bucks, but am having trouble figuring out either one. I use to use wordpress quite awhile ago & remembering adding badges & such was pretty easy, not sure why i’m having so much trouble now.

  You might be referring to widgets instead of badges.

  We do have an advertising program called WordAds.

  Advertising outside of WordAds at WordPress.com is not allowed.
  There are no restrictions if you setup a self-hosted WordPress.org blog instead of a WordPress.com blog, but there are some added responsibilities.

  Please see this guide to learn about the differences. We have hosting recommendations at the following link if you are interested.

  i looked at widgets & didn’t see anywhere i could paste a code that had been copied. i def. mean badges, like a sign, “BlogHer” “blogging gluten free” , etc. badges like that. i will check out wordads, but for some reason it didn’t let me do it before, don’t remember why.

  If you have code that you’ve copied, you should be able to enter it into a Text widget.
