  Hello,

  I have a problem, I am trying to insert a HTML code into the “Head” of my blog. It’s actually a verification asked by my affiliate platform. They are asking me to insert a Meta HTML, in order to accept my registration.

  I am trying for days but unfortunately it is not working.

  They told me to go to Apperance and then Editor, but I can’t find it.

  I really need help please :(

  Thanks in advance

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Metadata cannot be inserted on WordPress.com hosted blogs and you cannot insert that code into the header.

  You can sell only products you personally create or services that you personally provide. Only Blogs with the Business Bundle upgrade can equip their blogs for ecommerce.

  If you do not have that upgrade you can post a PayPal button http://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/

  If you have a shopping cart set up for your own products or services elsewhere online you can create a custom menu and include a custom link to it in the menu.

  Affiliate links
  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.

  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. http://en.support.wordpress.com/affiliate-links/ closely.

  For greater clarity here’s what gets a blog suspended:

  If you want to have an affiliate marketing blog you cannot do that here. You need to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up a WordPress.org install. Read the comparison here please http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Short form: No ads. Only text links in blog posts can be affiliate links. No meta code.
