  Exactly what code are you entering? Are you using a text widget?

  WordPress.COM users have code restrictions. No JavaScript, no form codes, except these https://en.support.wordpress.com/forms/contact-form https://en.support.wordpress.com/forms/, no tracking codes, no advertising codes, and no unsupported embeds of unsupported iframes can be used on any wordpress.COM hosted sites.

  Please read:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/code/
  allowed HTML tags list – https://en.support.wordpress.com/code/#html-tags
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/code/#javascript
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/code/#flash-and-other-embeds

  Also note that blogger initiated third party advertising is not allowed here.

  Please read: Monetize Your Site https://en.support.wordpress.com/monetize-your-site/

  The only advertising program at WordPress.com is called WordAds and it’s for blogs on their own domains that have enough traffic to qualify for acceptance into the plan.

  If you want to post third party advertising code you need a self-hosted WordPress.ORG software install running on a paid web hosting service.

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/

  See: Moving to Self-Hosted WordPress
  https://move.wordpress.com/

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right-hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.

  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
