Joining a Web Hosting Affiliate Program

If you currently host a website, joining a web hosting affiliate program can not just recoup the costs of bandwidth and server space, but it can bring you significant new income. Web hosting affiliate programs are also easy and free to join - all it takes is a couple of customer referrals from you in order to earn a credit or a payment.

If you’re happy with your current domain and hosting provider, ask them about their web hosting affiliate program. Often times, customer referrals can bring $50, $60, or even up to $100 for each person that signs up to your provider’s services.

Your host may even offer a web hosting affiliate program that gives you a percentage cut of the sales made when customers off your referrals sign up for services. This might be a recurring monthly or annual payment. Most web hosting affiliate programs will provide regular payments via check or directly to your bank account or even to your Paypal account.

An example of a high-paying web hosting affiliate program is the Yahoo! Small Business Affiliate Program. Businesses currently using Yahoo! Web hosting can earn anywhere from $60 to $100 per customer referral. For customer referrals resulting in Yahoo! Domains sales, you can also receive 20% of the total sale.

Other sites catering to website owners also provide affiliate programs. These include TemplateMonster and WebmasterFX. Joining such programs can provide you with additional income while catering to the same group of customers.

Joining a web hosting affiliate program is easy – just fill out an online form and put an approved link on your existing website. Look for a program with a large range of banners and other advertising material to place on your site, and within minutes you can be on your way to making profits through a new revenue stream!
