  I have a free blog with WordPress. Can I sell an ebook on it? Or do I have to have a Business account in order to sell an ebook? Can I recommend products and services that I have used and put up an affiliate link to these products and services? Thank you.

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

  Hi there,

  I have a free blog with WordPress. Can I sell an ebook on it? Or do I have to have a Business account in order to sell an ebook?

  You’re welcome to sell an ebook you wrote, or other products you’ve made, on your free WordPress.com blog. The WordPress.com Business plan has some business-specific features that you might enjoy, like eCommerce integration, but without it you’re welcome to use something like a PayPal button to sell things you’ve created.

  Can I recommend products and services that I have used and put up an affiliate link to these products and services?

  Sure! You’re welcome to add affiliate links in context, while blogging about products and services you recommend. Please take a look at our guidelines for Advertising and Affiliate Links to make sure you use the affiliate links appropriately. :)
