  I realize that in the free version of WP, I am not able to participate in Affiliate Programs. I cannot find anything that tells me whether or not an upgrade / dedicated domain name will permit me to participate in affiliate programs. I will no longer use WP if I cannot upgrade or dedicate my domain name in order to accomplish my goal. Looking for insight please… Thank you.

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

  Neither will. You’d have to go to a self-hosted site.
