  We started a blog and upgraded to own the .com instead of wordpress.com, but we can’t put in an Adsense. I am confused because as far as I can tell only Free blogs are not permitted to have ads. This is a bit of a concern because we were even looking for sponser for the site and are concerned if it’s possible now.

  Advertisements are not permitted at WordPress.com, as per our advertising policy:
  http://support.wordpress.com/advertising
  http://wordpress.com/types-of-blogs/

  There are no restrictions on advertising if you setup a self-hosted WordPress.org blog instead of a WordPress.com blog, but there are some added responsibilities.

  Please see this link to learn about the differences:
