You Tube ad on my blog.
-
Why do I get ad’s on a domain I have paid for? Your “ad” statement says it’s to cover the cost of those “free sites”. My site is not free so why do I see ad’s popping up on my blog? I DEFINITELY DO NOT want to see ad’s for alcohol and other garbage on my site. Why does WORD press want to advertise that junk anyway? I was not aware when I paid for the domain that it still gave Word press the right to put ad’s on my blogs. Please explain this to me. Thank you.

Hi there,
While you did pay for a domain, the domain itself has a cost associated with it as well. To support our services (and yes, to keep free features free), we sometimes run advertisements, and the agreement for this has been in our terms of service since 2006.
We try hard to only run them in limited places. If you would like to completely eliminate ads from appearing on your blog, we offer the No-Ads Upgrade: http://en.support.wordpress.com/no-ads/

That’s ok. I will just remove my blogs. I don’t post often enough anyway and the free one I set up has not even had one post. I am disappointed at this stance but it’s your business and I guess you feel you have to pay for it in some way. May payment in March for my domain was for the whole year. Can I get a pro-rated amount refunded when I cancel the site?

Hey there,
While most of our products are fully refundable for 30 days after purchase, domains are only refundable for 48 hours. You can of course transfer your domain to another registrar however. Here’s some information on how to do so:
