Web Hosting Affiliate Programs

by: blog-editor2 , February 2, 2011

Web hosting affiliate programs can be an attractive way to earn extra income for your business, especially for those companies in the marketing and consulting fields. Most web hosting providers offer some type of reseller or affiliate program that will enable you to profit from your clients' need for hosting. These programs are also a great way to form a stronger bond with customers so you are more likely to continue to get their business month after month. However, you shouldn’t just stop there.

Why only profit from web hosting when there are other needs that your clients and prospects regularly have as well? After all, if they are not getting their services from you, they may turn to your competition who may then swing them into using the same core services you provide, meaning that you lose them all together. So while affiliate programs can provide handsome additional revenue streams, and more revenues is always a good thing, affiliate programs are actually much more important than that. On top of being able to offer a wider variety of services and product without the cost of developing them yourself, affiliate programs offer more power to attract and draw in new prospects and clients. Take web domain name registration as an example. Perhaps a prospect is searching for a new web domain name; they get taken to your site where you can also provide web hosting as well as present them with your core product or service and put them into your long-term funnel.

One of the most powerful products or services you can add to your offerings are toll free numbers. Every business needs a toll free number today. Many need several blocks of toll free numbers. So why shouldn’t you be the one to profit by joining a toll free affiliate program? The leading toll free service providers even offer a range of marketing materials and sticky widgets that can help you drive in more traffic, increase conversion ratios, and enable higher customer retention. So yes, becoming a web hosting affiliate or reseller can be smart, but explore all of your options.
