  Hello!

  Ads such as from Google Adsense are unable to be added due to security reasons. Those third-party ads require a bit of extra code to be added which impacts security at WordPress.com
  WordPress has a guide for advertising here:

  The only ad program allowed is WordAds. You can learn more about it here:

  WordAds

  I’ve also included a couple helpful links that talk more about how to make money from WordPress.com

  If you want to run your own ads you would need a WordPress.org site. Here is a guide for the differences between WordPress.org and WordPress.com
