  My blog is a Christian Blog and Some how I am getting Non Christian advertisements on my blog. I do not mind Christian appropriate advertisements, but I DO mind inappropriate ads. I also get this on my posts :

  Not Found

  The requested URL /a/8423/13695/47229-2.html was not found on this server.

  How can I control the type of ads that are attached to my post and remove the not found URL?

  Thank you for your help

  WordPress.com has been running advertising on our free hosted blogs since 2006. Many bloggers do not know this because despite the fact they ticked the box required to get a free blog, they did not read the ToS. Many also do not read the advertising entry in the support documents after registering their username and blog(s). Also note that as the ads do not display to us when we are logged in, and as many use browsers with ad blockers when logged out, they may not realize they are there at all.

  How can I control the type of ads that are attached to my post

  You can’t. To eliminate all advertising on our free hosted WordPress.com blogs we can purchase an annually renewable No-Ads upgrade.

  All of WordPress.com ads are family-friendly. If you feel an ad is inappropriate please take a screenshot of it, upload it via Media -> Add New to your Media Library. Then return to this thread to post the file name to let Staff them know it’s there for them to view.
