Upgrading to get plug-ins/affiliate marketing with mystique theme
-
Hi, I have a couple of questions.
1. I am running the mystique theme on the $18/year subscription. Do I have to upgrade to the $100/year to get plug-ins for this theme? I don’t see a place to put plug-ins.
2. I am starting to get hit up for advertising and affiliate marketing. If I do decide to upgrade so that I can put ads in the secondary border, will I lose this theme format? I really like it!
I am up for any and all constructive criticisms! If you think I should leave as is and put the adverts in the first sidebar, let me know, but I don’t think it is even possible without plug-ins. Any and all help is gratly appreciated!

Hi there,
There is no FTP access and no blogger installed plugin capability on any free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and there is no upgrade you can purchase here that changes that reality.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/If you want FTP access and to install plugins or third party themes into a site then you will have to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set up your own WordPress.org install. WordPress.org offers free software that you can install on a web server. You can upload and install themes and plugins, run ads, conduct ecommerce and edit the database.

No blogger initiated advertising is allowed on WordPress.com blogs. The only blogs that can be equipped for ecommerce are those with the $299. per year business upgrade. http://en.support.wordpress.com/ecommerce/
The only advertising program at WordPress.com is called WordAds and it’s for blogs on their own domains.

http://en.wordpress.com/tos/1. WordPress.com allows bloggers to insert text affiliate links within post and page content to most third-party affiliate programs, provided they are not the primary content of the site in question.
2. Image affiliate links in posts and pages and any banners, affiliate links in sidebar or footer widget areas, are still considered to be advertising and are not allowed on WordPress.com blogs.
