  Hi,
  I would like to have a web store on my blog. Basically it would be great if I could just have another ‘page’ on the blog where the store would be. Is that possible or do I have to start looking for other places where I can do both?

  Best regards,
  Alexis Yoon

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

  Did you make the items you want to sell yourself? I’m asking because NO reselling anything made by anyone else is allowed on free hosted WordPress.com blogs.

  WordPress.com blogs cannot be equipped for ecommerce transactions and no blogger initiated advertising or paid or sponsored content is allowed. The only things you can sell on WP.com blogs are products that you, yourself create and/or services that you personally provide. For an online store with a shopping cart you need an independently hosted blog using WordPress.ORG software.

  For selling your own creations on a free hosted WordPress.com blog see http://en.support.wordpress.com/paypal/

  If and only if you are marketing only what you create and have a online shop with a shopping cart somewhere else online you can create a custom menu and add a custom link to it.
