  You are confusing wordpress.COM hosted sites with wordpress.ORG software installs.

  WordPress.com blogs have built-in plugins only.

  re: plugins

  Blogger installed plugin capability does not exist on WordPress.COM blogs and there is no upgrade you can purchase here that changes that reality.

  For that type of functionality, you’d need a self-hosted WordPress.ORG software install running on a paid web hosting service.

  The only advertising program at WordPress.com is called WordAds and it’s for blogs on their own domains that have enough traffic to qualify for acceptance into the plan.

  Additionally, please read http://en.support.wordpress.com/affiliate-links/

  1. WordPress.com allows bloggers to insert text affiliate links within post and page content to most third-party affiliate programs, provided they are not the primary content of the site in question.

  2. Image affiliate links in posts and pages and any banners, affiliate links in sidebar or footer widget areas, are still considered to be advertising and are not allowed on WordPress.com blogs.

  Advertising outside of WordAds at WordPress.com is not allowed.

  NOTE: A self-hosted WordPress site is what you need. WordPress.org offers free software that you can install on a web server. You can upload and install themes and plugins, run ads, conduct ecommerce and edit the database. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
