    If you upgrade, you get to use WordAds, the official WordPress advertising program.

    On Google Ads:

    Advertisements from third-party ad networks like Google AdSense, OpenX, Lijit, BuySellAds, and Vibrant Media are not allowed on WordPress.com. If you’d like to run these types of ads on your blog, you may wish to try a self-hosted WordPress installation.

    Thank you for the quick response 🙂…But I just want to know , will upgrading the blog can make money even from wordAds. As paying 8.25$ per month for the upgrade version. Or is it possible to cancel the plan after some months of upgrading.

    will upgrading the blog can make money even from wordAds

    Yes, you can make money. It mainly depends on how much traffic you can generate to your site. With the link provided previously, you can learn all the ways of monetization and making money.

    As paying 8.25$ per month for the upgrade version. Or is it possible to cancel the plan after some months of upgrading.

    The Plans are a one-time payment billed yearly, not monthly. So if you upgraded to premium, you pay $99 on the spot.

    Hi..Is WordPress.com or WordPress.org , which is better for earning for a food blogger?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Howdy again cookwithsmile! Great to see you again!

    Both have the ability to earn as a food blogger, it’s up to which align with your vision more. Seeing as you’re on WordPress.com asking this question, we would suggest using the .com. WordPress.com is simpler and easier to use with how the user interface is designed. WordPress.org provides self-hosting and more freedom in comparison. I would suggest reading a bit more on the differences of .com and .org before making this type of decision. Here are some articles:

    What is the minimum views required to get word ads in premium plan? Is earning depends on the ad or the clicks?

    What is the minimum views required to get word ads in premium plan?

    At least thousands of page views per month to make decent revenue.

    The following is a quote from the WordAds faq:

    Q: I applied to WordAds. When will it be available to me?

    A: Our advertisers do have a minimum traffic requirement. Once you reach that, your application will be automatically sent to them for evaluation.

    Q: What is the minimum traffic requirement?

    A: We cannot reveal the exact minimum publicly, but a site generally needs thousands of page views each month to earn meaningful revenue.

    Is earning depends on the ad or the clicks?

    You get paid by impressions, not clicks. Basically the amount of traffic AND how much people use your site.

    To quote form WordAds faq again:

    Q: Can I get more information to explain to my earnings?
    A: Generally, we are paid for impression, not by click. That means the more visits you get, and the more each visitor uses your site, the more you will earn.

    What you earn can vary greatly per blog, depending on the following factors:

    • The amount of traffic.
    • Where the majority of the traffic is coming from. (North American ad placements currently pay-out at a much greater level than international ads.)
    • How many are using ad blockers.
    • The actual ads that are displayed.
