  Hi, I was wondering if for me to format my blog, should I just follow the steps on my right?

  See here please http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/
  Note: To display the second row of icons, select the toolbar toggle icon

  If you are copying and pasting from a word processing document like Microsoft WORD note that the paste as WORD button was removed from the editor months ago. If you use the Paste as plain text button then a special cleanup process will run to remove any special formatting and HTML tags that may otherwise change your text. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#pasting-text Therefore you have to do your own formatting and spacing.

  Whether or not you are copying and pasting go to > Dashboard > Settings > Writing and enable this setting:
  Formatting
  __ WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically
  “save changes”

  Blog editors and word processors are not the same and do not work the same way. The web standard is one blank line only, so you cannot add more blank lines by pressing return repeatedly like you would do with a typewriter or in a word processing application. If you want to learn how to format and space your posts and pages see: http://en.support.wordpress.com/advanced-html/

  P.S. When you create a new post, always make sure the Format tool is set to Paragraph before you start typing. It’s in the Visual editor Row 2 first position “style”. See the illustration here http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#row-2 If you forget to do that then edit the post, highlight all in the Visual editor, select Paragraph from the Format tool, switch editor to Text then switch back to Visual and click Update.

  Also, as my audience increases, as there a way for to start having ads and sponsors on my blog?

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

  For questions about WordADs see:

  Advertising outside of WordAds at WordPress.com is not allowed.

  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.
