Why does my site get ads when I have bought the .com ?
-
Look folks,
When you add ads on a .wordpress.com free site, fair enough! BUT when I have bought the .com I should not be subjected to ads – and to charge MORE than the .com registration fee to get remove the advertising is a joke – really! I have several domains with you, and am severely unhappy about this!You guys have become very uncool, very quickly!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

As you note, we sometimes display advertisements on WordPress.com sites, in order to keep free features free. We try to make the ads discreet and only run them in limited places. Also as you have notes, if you would like to completely eliminate ads from appearing on your blog, we offer the No-Ads Upgrade:

In that case, I usually encourage people to look into setting up a self-hosted WordPress site. You get much of the advantages of using WordPress.com (particularly if you set up Jetpack http://jetpack.me/) without some of the restrictions. If you haven’t ever set up a self-hosted site, it is truly not a difficult project. And even if you have trouble, WordPress.org has a great support community that can help with any issues that might come up.
Please let me know if you have further questions or there is anything else I can do for you.

When you say the ads appear only on the sites that are free, you mean the ones that have the .wordpress.com extension?
