Can I receive free sex toys in exchange for a review, or does this violate TOS?
-
I am aware that links for adult-oriented affiliate programs are not allowed, but if I receive free sex toys in exchange for an unbiased review, am I allowed to publish these reviews and link to the companies selling them?

As long as you make it clear to your readers what you’re doing, and your site does not in itself violate our Terms of Service or serve primarily as a conduit to one that does, you should be fine.

Are you kidding? Totally out of the question on WordPress.com. Blogger-initiated ads are banned, period.

Okay, just read up on the advertising policy. Thanks for letting me know. I guess there’s just so many policies to read that I missed it. That’s why I wanted to check first.

That’s one clause that always seems to surprise people. It’s easy if you go off WP.com hosting, but then you have to deal with all sorts of other issues and frankly unless you’re getting 500 views a day you probably won’t even make back the cost of hosting the site.

I might go off WP.com hosting someday if I can arrange to get *some* money through ads and affiliate programs beforehand. I personally love blogging so paying for a part of the cost of the site myself would be fine with me, especially since I’d hopefully be getting free products to try.
Thanks so much for your help.
