Affiliate Programs on WordPress
-
I was wondering if we are allowed to have affiliate program advertisement links on our wordpress.com blog accounts. I plan to have these on my website as well, but also wanted to have a link on my blog. Is this against terms & policies? I read through them but am still unsure. Thank you.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/advertising/Affiliate marketing blogs: Blogs with the primary purpose of driving traffic to affiliate programs and get-rich-quick schemes (“Make six figures from home!!”, “20 easy steps to top profits!!”, etc). This includes multi-level marketing (MLM) blogs and pyramid schemes. To be clear, people writing their own original book, movie or game reviews and linking them to Amazon, or people linking to their own products on Etsy do NOT fall into this category. Here is a thread in the support forums that talks more about which affiliate links are OK or not OK. http://wordpress.com/types-of-blogs/

There is no upgrade you can purchase from WordPress.com that allows affiliate marketing blogs here. If you do require an ecommerce site, advertising and/or affiliate links you can hire a web host and get a free software install from http://wordpress.org Refer to > http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
