How do I get ads to display on my wordpress blog?

Question:

I heard wordpress host blogs and that is very simple. Some advice would be much appreciated

Answer:

WordPress.com does host blogs, but you can’t place advertising on them or you’ll get your account suspended. However, you can do it on a Blogger.com account because Google owns both Adsense and Blogger/Blogspot, but you have to get approved for Adsense.

Or, you can get your own web hosting account, install the WordPress software from the control panel, and put ANY kind of advertising on your blog including banner ads from networks like CommissionJunction and LinkShare.

I have 2 recommendations for WordPress hosting. WebHostingHub for people who love the cPanel control panel or iPage for people who like a easier to use vDeck control panel. I personally prefer WHH because WordPress runs my blogs blazing fast, but iPage has a great hard to resist sale going on right now for only $2.95/month. Both are good WordPress hosts.
