Even if your content is CC, you can use ads on *your own* content. It is yours after all. CC license, or any license for that matter, determines what *other people* can do with your content. So even if your content is under a non-commercial CC license, you can certainly include ads on your own site with your own content (assuming it is all your own content and not using pieces of anyone else's content with a conflicting license).
