Can you post an ad for your own product (on another website) on wordpress.com?

I have a free wordpress.com account and would like to post an ad for my own product (an ebook that I sell on another website). Is that allowed?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Yes what you describe is a new product created by yourself and you can link to it.
More information:
On your blog you can sell only products you personally create or services that you personally provide. Only Blogs with the Business Bundle upgrade can equip their blogs for ecommerce.

But if you have a shopping cart set up for your own products or services elsewhere online you can create a custom menu and include a custom link to it in the menu.

Image affiliate links in posts and pages and any banners, affiliate links in sidebar or footer widget areas, are still considered to be advertising and are not allowed on WordPress.com blogs. http://en.support.wordpress.com/affiliate-links/ closely.
