  Hi,
  This is my blog https://way4cash.wordpress.com/.
  I have read some restrictions in affiliate linking in free blog. Please check my blog.

  I am trying to build a review about some websites like PTC, Freelance, Blogging, Crowd sourcing,etc., in my blog. I need to put some affiliate links inside the posts(not in sidebar/footer) as a primary content & review of that website. It’s related to ‘How to make money with Legit websites’. Is it possible here?
  If not give me some other solution with wordpress.

  If i have a 3rd party domain, hosting & installed WordPress means, can i use all kind of affiliate links in my WordPress blog?

  Thanks in advance.

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

  Hi there,

  Affiliate links are allowed on WordPress.com as long as the primary purpose of your blog is to create original content:

  Monetize Your Site

  We do have an advertising program called WordAds, which you can read more about here:

  WordAds

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

  Advertising

  http://wordpress.com/types-of-blogs/

  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:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  We have hosting recommendations at the following link if you are interested:

  Let me know if you have any other questions.

  Thanks!

  Hi,

  Thanks for your valuable response.
  Please Check again: https://way4cash.wordpress.com/

  I have decided to start my blog as a Affiliate Marketing Blog in wordpress.com. Because I have seen a rule that own reviews of an site and affiliate links are allowed here. right!

  Please tell me your final words. I can go with that.

  Thanks again.

  I think it would be safer for you to create the site on a self-hosted WordPress.org site so that you can have more liberty in what you want to do. As the site grows, it might be considered a get rich quick scheme site which is a violation of our Terms of Service:

  Before you get too far into building the site, I’d recommend exporting it over to WordPress.org.

  Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!
