  Hi,
  I bought my domain in order the make some money by posting my contents on my blog.
  there are many websites promoting wordpress.com as monetizing blog site for bloggers, they said under few hours you will state making money with your blog. Nothing like that is happening to my blog site, the worst of it all is i placed Adsense codes in my site non is responsive because i just realise wordpress don’t work with third party ad sites, moreover adword should be alternative and it’s not working either plus no more registration.
  Please i need someone tell me what to do. Because this is very discouraging.

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

  they are full of it – I hope you did not pay for that advice

  You can not sell or place your own ads on a WordPress.COM blog – that will get your site suspended, no warning required

  You have a custom domain name so you can apply for the WordAds program here if you have enough traffic – (what is the traffic requirement? That is a secret and not public information) – but it is a revenue sharing program with WordPress.COM

  There are two types of “WordPress”

  For more on the difference: http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Note: you need a lot of traffic no matter what money making program you use since the payment per view is very low and it takes a lot of views (think – picking up a penny every-time you walk a block – takes a lot of walking to buy dinner )

  Anyone that tells you that you can get rich quick with a web site is a liar – most of that advice seems to come from folks that sell you some secret program to make them some money selling the “secrets” to suckers

  Don’t know how old your site is but Alexa says you are a relative light traffic site: http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/deereport.com

  here is some more info – the rules on WordPress.COM are a bit different that some other hosts (please note that all hosts have terms of service)

  You might also review the TOS before you get too far along:
