Hello there,
Ads have been appearing on WordPress.COM sites since 2006. However what you describe is strange and I cannot see an ad on your site.
Unless you purchase a Personal plan http://wordpress.com/pricing or a higher level Premium or Business Plan there will be ads placed by WordPress.COM on your site.
If the ads you see are found at the end of blog posts then provided you see this small About These Ads link then what you are seeing is WordPress.com generated advertising. http://en.wordpress.com/about-these-ads/
Any other ads appearing to you are not placed by WordPress.com. You have an issue on your browser or computer. They are being placed there by software on your own computer, unfortunately. These ads are sometimes caused by malware or a virus, but more often it is due to a browser extension or toolbar that you may have installed in your browser.
These sites have further explanation and suggestions for eliminating the ads:

You can use http://snag.gy/ or http://cloudup.com to share screenshots and link to them here. If you use the WordPress.com guide for screenshots http://en.support.wordpress.com/make-a-screenshot/ you can and upload it to your Media Library, and return to this thread to provide the file name so Staff can examine it.

If I’m the only one seeing them. Then I’m not going to worry about it. thank you timechief :). Hope you are well.

I added a screenshot to my media. How do I let the experts know its there and the problem?

When we need Staff help with issues Volunteers cannot resolve like this one we type modlook into the sidebar tags on our forum threads. I did that for you. How do I get a Moderator/Staff reply for my question? https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-help-in-the-forums/#how-do-i-get-a-moderatorstaff-reply-for-my-question Then we subscribe to this thread so we are notified when they respond. To subscribe look in the sidebar of this thread, find the subscribe to topics link and click it.
-
Ok. I clicked on modlook, and seen it there. So do I just wait? Or do I need to do something?
-
You subscribe to the thread and wait for Staff to post here. When they do you will get an email at the email account you registered here https://wordpress.com/me/account

Hi @louis1962, ads help cover our costs for free sites. We typically show one or two ads after a post or page, which is what I’m seeing in your screenshot.
For what it’s worth, our personal plan gets rid of ads, gives you a custom domain, and adds direct technical support. That’s available here:
https://wordpress.com/plans -
But the adds on my page is not WordPress related. I was told it’s normally WordPress adds.

My site got an update from worpress 4.8.3 and now my site doesn’t work properly, some function doesn´t work, the images aren’t able to see, the footer doesn´t appear in most of the pages. What can I do?, I’m not very expert in WordPress

Your post is not relevant here. This thread is focused on advertising on WordPress.COM hosted sites.
You are referring to a WordPress.ORG software install and we do not provide support for them.
You are posting to the wrong support forum. This is WordPress.COM support and that site is not on our servers.
WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
The wordpress.ORG support forum is at http://wordpress.org/support. The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/ If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/
WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
See also https://apps.wordpress.org/support/ for app support. -
@louis1962 we sell ads. And sometimes we use our own ad space. So you may see a WordPress ad or it may be a third party ad.

@comerdelsoluciones, you’ll want to look at the forums at https://wordpress.org/support to see if someone there has the same issue. If you can’t find the solution, start a new thread there (rather than jumping into an unrelated thread) and you’ll be more likely to find help.
If you’d like, you may be able to move your site to our service so we can maintain it for you and provide support. Here’s how to get started with that once your current issue is resolved:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/coming-from-self-hosted/And if you need help importing your site, please start a new topic (so we aren’t sending @louis1962 and @timethief notifications unrelated to the “Advertisement on sites” topic) and we’ll help from there.
-
@louis1962 I can see you have several threads started about ads on your site, so we’ll go ahead and close this one.
