  Old  Adsense on Wordpress allowed?

Hey guys -

I am still on the Wordpress server - and I am curious if I am allowed to put adsense on the site?

Do I have to be hosting my own wordpress blog to do so?

Here is my blog:

The answer now would be no. I read about a week ago that someone found a way to get around it, but the wordpress team 'fixed' it immediately.

Sorry.

2 different opinions.

Can you guys find proof of either one?

Can I include Adsense or other company adverts on my blog.

Short answer: no. AdSense, and other JAVA Script based scripts, are currently seen as a security issue. Also WP.com blogs are provided as a free service. This policy may change in the future.
Thats from the WP FAQ. This is only for the blogs hosted at Wordpress.com, you may add adsense to the ones that you host I think.

From my knowledge, this statement is correct.

Yes, you can. Wordpress can’t stop you from adding adsense to your blog (or any other banners for that matter) if you’re hosting it yourself.
