  Hello,

  Can I include an affiliate link to a site I work on?

  I am currently setting up a free wordpress site and plan on taking it to a paid one in the next few months (we are moving across country so I don’t have time to do all the work to make my site just now). Can I add an affiliate banner to my free site?

  I have one paid wordpress site (yourenglishafternoonteas.com) and have several other free sites and want to add to my new site.

  Thank you
  Alison

  Advertising outside of WordAds at WordPress.com is not allowed. For full details, please see:

  We do have an advertising program called WordAds, which you can apply for at http://en.wordpress.com/apply-for-wordads/

  If you require other advertising, you might be interested in a self-hosted (WordPress.org) installation. There are no restrictions on advertising if you setup a self-hosted WordPress.org blog instead of a WordPress.com blog, but there are some added responsibilities.

  Please see this link to learn about the differences:

  Please let me know if you have further questions or if anything is unclear.
