  Ads are now appearing at the top of my blog’s sidebar. That has never happened before. It is kinda distracting. Can those ads please be removed? I realize that ads will appear at the end of posts and pages on the free .com sites, but please, no ads in the sidebar. Thank you.

  My blog is: https://daniceseclecticblog.wordpress.com/

  A screenshot is now in my Media library, showing the sidebar ad.
  Here is the link: https://daniceseclecticblog.files.wordpress.com/2018/01/screenshot-2018-1-30-danices-eclectic-blog-2.jpg

  Just added another image to my Media, showing that now ads are also on every page, every post, and in the blog footer. 4+ ads per post and page. (In addition to sidebar ads)I have been on WP for seven years, and never had this many ads. Looking at other free .com WP sites, and they don’t have many ads at all. Some not even 2 or 3 ads.

  Can the ads just go back to at the ends of posts and pages, please? Preferably not on every post and page, because many other free WP sites don’t have that many. Please? I have worked intensely to get my blog to look the way it looks, and love Twenty Seventeen theme. Thank you.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi daniceseclectic,

  Thanks for the screenshots. I’ve passed them on to our ads team along with your comments, so they can take a closer look at the placement.

  I’ll be in touch as soon as I have more information for you.

  Thanks!

  Thank you so much gemmacevans. I also started a new thread on that link you gave me, tagged modlook. The help in this Forum is always so helpful, friendly and quick (unlike some other blogging platforms). We’ll stay in touch. Again, thank you so much.

  Hi daniceseclectic,

  The ads team have mentioned they are currently experimenting with the placement of ads. This means you may see them appear in areas where they weren’t previously displayed but this is subject to change going forward.

  Ads are displayed to help keep our free features, free. However, if you would rather not have ads on your site, they can be removed with a paid plan. This is optional and you are welcome to continue using the Free plan if you would prefer.
