Credible corp ads on Business Tier sites?
-
Hi, we publish industry news sites for trade associations, and several industries. We were about to upgrade to a Business Tier for a site we are launching for the cybersecurity industry that will have curated ‘threat’ news with nearby sponsor logos/ads from Oracle, or NetApp or similar IT brand. Did I read correctly — that we can not do this? We wanted to do similar for a food industry association with ads from LandOLakes, Kraft Foods, etc….again, not allowed?? I doubt we’re large enough to be VIP there, but we are credible would be using your highest Tier (Business) for each site.
I found your turnkey (and safe) environment to be a much better fit for our projects than WP.org, SqSpace, etc.
I appreciate any feedback or permission to upgrade and proceed as we’d like.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Support? Can I get a reply on this topic?, as I am holding off on Business account until I’m sure we can implement our corporate B2B site on WP.com

I want you to read what follows very carefully.
No blogger initiated advertising is allowed on WordPress.COM hosted blogs. The only advertising program at WordPress.com is called WordAds and it’s for blogs on their own domains that have enough traffic to qualify for acceptance into the plan.

https://wordads.co/faq/Please read http://en.support.wordpress.com/affiliate-links/
1. WordPress.com allows bloggers to insert text affiliate links within post and page content to most third-party affiliate programs, provided they are not the primary content of the site in question.
2. 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.
Advertising outside of WordAds at WordPress.com is not allowed.

This guide will explain how to move your WordPress.com site to another hosting platform: Moving to a Self-Hosted WordPress Site
https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-to-a-self-hosted-wordpress-site/We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. Our support docs do not apply to
(1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
(2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM.Also, note that we do not provide Jetpack support https://jetpack.me/support/ for sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin.
WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
For sites not hosted here, if you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right-hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.
