In the past several years website hosting has absolutely exploded! With more companies jumping into this business and finding the huge benefits available, the demand for web hosting has never been higher. This seems to be the trend of today.
This only means one thing. It is easier now than ever to find the right web host for your application. This is a great opportunity for web hosting affiliates and resellers alike. There are hundreds of web hosting companies and programs to choose from that the difficulty in finding the right one for you shouldn’t be a problem anymore. The possibility of quality web hosting companies separating themselves from the rest of the industry is anticipated. If this is done, the unprofessional and incompetent ones will suffer.
Support will be the number one consideration for people when choosing a web host. Most people would rather opt for the web host based on things that they see and hear. Also based on the recommendations by those who have tried them and have proved to be a successful.
The question is how does one become a successful affiliate in the niche markets using web hosting?
If you think about it, all website owners need a company to host their sites for them. As of now, there is really no leading hosting industry so most people choose hosts based from recommendations. Usually, they get it from the people they know that have already chosen a web hosting service they are happy with.
With the many different web hosts offering affiliate and resell programs, you should be able to find one that will work best for you. Think of the product you will be promoting. Promote your people from your sites to the hosting site and see how well the your subscribers and traffic convert to paying customers.
When you have been with one web host for quite some time and it’s not converting your traffic very well, simply try another one! There is no use in trying to stick to one when you would be better off in another one.
Try this out. If you are quite happy and satisfied with your web host, try to see if they are offering an affiliate program you can participate in. Instead of you paying them, why not make it the other way around; them paying you. The process can be as easy as putting a small “powered by” or “hosted by” aff. link at the bottom of your niche page and you are already in an affiliate business.
Why pay for your web hosting when you do not have to? Try to get paid by letting people know you like your web host.
Always remember that when choosing a web host, choose the one that is known for its fantastic customer support. Make sure they have a 1-800 number and try calling it in the middle of the night and see if your greeted happily. Remember – your site needs to be up in the middle of the night too so the other side of earth can browse your products and services when your sleeping. There are also many hosting affiliate or resell programs.
Residual affiliate and resell solutions really rock! This is the where you get paid a percentage every month for a client that you refer. This can allow you to have a steady source of income. With perseverance, you can even be quite successful in this field.
There are a lot of niche markets that offer resell rights and are just waiting for the right affiliate to promote them.
Web hosting is just one affiliate market you could try out for some good continuous income. Just remember that to be successful in your endeavor also means that time, effort and patience will be needed.
