    Hello, I am using the free WordPress.com plan, and I recently got approved for Google AdSense. They asked me to add an ads.txt file to my site, but I don’t have direct access.

    Is there any way for me to add this manually or get help from WordPress?

    This is the ads.txt entry they gave me:

    I appreciate your help! Thanks!
