  Wordpress.com shows ads on every free website to keep those free sites for free. Upgrading to a paid plan removes those ads, https://wordpress.com/pricing/

  Hi @pepemurphy,

  To add to what @staartmees noted, if you’d like to remove ads, you can upgrade to a Personal plan or higher by going to Upgrades → Plans.

  It’s worth noting that a one year free domain registration is also included in a plan upgrade, with is great if you’d like to use a custom domain name with your site.

  Hope that helps.
