  If a reader logs onto my blog from Facebook an ad is being put at the at the bottom of my post. This does not happen if blog is accessed directly. Got a call from a friend who thought this was odd (thought we had been sponsored). Some of these ads are adult content and I do not want them to appear. Is this a Facebook setting? HELP.

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

  It has nothing to do with Facebook. Ads have been placed on WordPress since @ 2006. If you are logged into WP, you won’t see them. If you are logged out, you can see them so that is why they are being noticed. If they are adult in nature, they should not be there and WP is asking you to do a screen shot & report the ads – they will have them removed. If you don’t want ads to appear at all, you can pay $30 to do the no-ads upgrade.

  As kellywpa has said by using my copy and paste lol :D the only way to eliminate ads WordPress.com runs on our blogs is purchase the annually renewable No-Ads Upgrade.
