  Your ads.txt file is missing: https://jetpack.com/2018/11/09/how-jetpack-ads-members-can-increase-their-earnings-with-ads-txt/

  Hello.

  I added

  #WordPress
  johnparkwriters.blog, 4003422, DIRECT
  #WordPress – Google

  As the instructional suggested, but still no ads. :)

  The custom entry is not supposed to use your own domain. It’s supposed to use the domain of the advertising provider in question.

  Here’s what you currently have added:

  #WordPress
  wordpress.com, 190777326, DIRECT

  That is not correct either, as WordPress.com is not the advertising provider here. Pubmine.com is, and the entry for that appears at the top of your ads.txt file already:

  #WordPress
  pubmine.com, 190777326, DIRECT

  The problem here is that your ads.txt file was completely missing, and that was due to the ads.txt Manager plugin, and the Advanced Ads plugin you were using, as those were overriding Jetpack’s ads.txt file.

  Since you’ve removed that, Jetpack’s ads.txt file has become active again, and WordAds shows it can detect that file again on our end. But it will likely take a while before ads will start appearing again.

  Please give it a day or so. If ads still haven’t started appearing by tomorrow, please contact live chat support at https://wordpress.com/help/contact so we can check what else might be going on.
