How does an affiliate program work?
An affiliate program is one of the most effective and low-maintenance ways to make money on the Internet. Most likely, you already have links to other websites on your web page. Put a Thunderhost.org affiliate link on your website and you will earn up to $198 each time someone clicks on your link, visits the Thunderhost.org website, and purchases a web hosting plan.
Instructions:
1. You put an affiliate text link or banner ad on your website that links to Thunderhost.org. (We give you these special codes)
2. When a potential customer clicks on that link, it takes them through our 3rd party affiliate system on the way to our site.
3. We put a temporary cookie in their browser that expires in 45 days. A cookie is a tiny text file that tracks which affiliate sent the customer and what type of link they used. It does NOT record email addresses or any other personal information.
4. Then, if the customer purchases a web hosting plan, the information from the cookie is sent to us and you get paid. So, once you have a link on your site, your job is pretty much finished. We provide the service, billing, and support, while you just figure out what to do with the extra cash.
