    I’m a little confused. I have read here that advertising on your wordpress blog is a violation of the terms of service, but I have seen wordpress blogs with advertising. From what I’ve read, VIP blogs or those managing their own installations are free to advertise using plugins. I take that to mean if I loaded wordpress on my own server I am free to use the plugins to advertise. Is that correct?

    Yes. Those TOS apply to blogs hosted on wordpress.COM, not self-hosted installs of WordPress.org

    Yes, it’s confusing. Sorry abotu that.

    If it’s self-hosted, yes – although I’d be careful to ensure that none of the adverts break your hosting company’s TOS. As for getting paid, that’s for you to negotiate with your potential advertisers. 🙂
