  Hi all,
  I’ve had my wordpress site for just over two years now, and I’m looking for the best way to earn some money from my site. I have had over 100,000 views for five consecutive months, but I’m not sure of the best/most effective way to earn money through advertising-whether it be google ad sense or WordPressAds. I think it would be more beneficial to earn per views on my site, rather than per click on adverts, but equally I don’t want the adverts to become too distracting and detract from my content as I’ve worked hard to build up a loyal readership. Any feedback/advice would be much appreciated! Thanks guys!

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

  Hello @Joshuagorton:

  You might want to review the following support document on how to monetize your site.
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/monetize-your-site/

  This information is taken from the link above:
  Advertisements from third-party ad networks like Google AdSense, OpenX, Lijit, BuySellAds, and Vibrant Media are not allowed on WordPress.com. If you’d like to run these types of ads on your blog, you may wish to try a self-hosted WordPress installation.

  These documents might also be helpful to you should you plan to use WordAds for your site.

  I hope this information helps.

  Above you used the code tags rather than the quote tags.

  Thanks, I didn’t see the duplicate post. Also, thank you for the heads up on the code tags. You always give such wonderful advice in the forums. I have learned so much from your replies :)

  Thanks for the kind words about my responses. My answers aren’t always perfect. I choose to answer the most repetitive questions asked. :)

  I’ve been volunteering here for over 10 years. I predate all support docs and predate all support staff being on staff except for one member.
