  Skimlinks tells me I can use it in my wordpress.com blog – B: WordPress.com (AdControl Only)
  Insert your Publisher ID into your WordPress Ad Control form in the “Skimlinks Publisher ID” field.
  Then tick the “Enable Skimlinks” box. That’s it!’ Where do I find this field?

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

  Hi there,

  You can manage your WordAds settings under Settings > WordAds in your dashboard. For specific questions about using WordAds and managing your settings, you can contact the WordAds support team directly here:

  You can use the contact form on that page, and the WordAds team will respond to your questions privately. Thanks!

  Hi Rachel,

  I don’t understand the connection between adwords and Skimlinks.

  The other thing is that Adwords is active according to the dashboard, but when I log out and go to the blog there are no ads! I am missing something here?

  Hi Rowland,

  Because you are a member of WordAds, the settings for your blog’s advertising are controlled through WordAds. The WordAds support team can help answer any specific questions you have about those settings.

  I know that Adwords is a separate thing, but I don’t understand how Skimlinks fits in with Adwords.

  I’ve tried contacting WordAds but no response, not even an e-mail saying they will be dealing with my query.

  The settings tab you refer to simply says it is active.

  Also Skimlinks says they do not support wordpress.com, yet the piece I have pasted in in my original query show they refer to it specifically.

  So I am baffled and am receiving no support from anybody!

  Hi Rowland, sorry for the confusion here. I asked you to contact the WordAds team because you are a WordAds member. The ads support team will be able to answer your questions about your advertising options for your site here at WordPress.com.

  Since you have contacted the WordAds team, they will respond to your query directly via email. Thanks for your patience in the meantime. :)

  Hi Again,

  That’s my point…normally Customer Support systems respond immediately with a ‘this is being looked into….’ type message. Nothing has arrived form WordAds . . which in my experience usually means nothing will happen . . .
