Facebook Pixels

Hi Guys,
How can I add the Facebook pixels code to my website? I’m not even sure if WordPress allows it?
Pixels help you track the audience that found your website through Facebook and check an ad’s performance.Many Thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

The answer is no. You cannot post advertising links and that’s what Facebook pixels are all about https://www.facebook.com/business/help/952192354843755

The only advertising program at WordPress.COM is called WordAds and it’s for blogs on their own domains.

http://en.wordpress.com/apply-for-wordads/No blogger initiated advertising for driving traffic to third party sites is allowed. PPC is not allowed. Affiliate marketing banners and any and all advertising outside of WordAds at WordPress.COM are not allowed.
Here’s what gets a blog suspended:

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.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/
As your needs will be met on a wordpress.ORG software install that is 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.

But in this case the traffic is going into wordpress, not out of it… Pixels are simply a metric of the volume I’m sending INTO wordpress through Facebook, so I’d figure it’s something wordpress would encourage?
It seems it’s quite hard to set up a fully functioning, profitable website in wordpress.com with so many restrictions. I’m not experienced enough with code and technicalities to be able to create a wordpress.org website, so with that out of the table, it seems I have no option but to leave wordpress.
Anyway, thanks for giving me food for thought.

Thimethief, the whole point is that I have zero experience with technicalities such as those required for wordpress.org. Trust me, I have tried and I have failed. Which means wordpress.org is absolutely a no go for me, and with wordpress.com having so many limits, I’m feeling a bit out of choice here. That’s all. : (

WordPress.com is a multi-user environment, and as such we all use the same underlying code for WordPress and themes. Being a multi-user environment, we have to be very careful about the code that is allowed here since we have tens of millions of sites hosted here. The code for Pixel is Javascript, and that code is not allowed here for security reasons.
