How To Setup a WebHostingBuzz UK Affiliate Account

Note: This guide is for affiliates who wish to refer their friends to our UK service offering. If you’d like the US version, please click here.

If you feel you could potentially send clients our way, and would like to earn yourself a commission in the process, signing up to our UK affiliate program is a great way of doing this.

Here’s a fairly simple step-by-step guide to show you how to sign up for our affiliate program in the UK.

1. Navigate to the Affiliates area of WebHostingBuzz.co.uk

If you’d like to become a Buzz affiliate, the first step is to head over to http://www.webhostingbuzz.co.uk/affiliates.php.

Once you’re there, take a quick read of the commission structure to make yourself aware of what you can earn for the different services.

Simplified, we offer a 50% commission on shared and reseller hosting, with a larger 100% commission for VPS/Dedicated Server referrals. Bonuses are also available for affiliates who refer more than a certain number of sales to us per month.

2. Hit the ‘Join Us’ button, and fill out your details

Now you’ll be presented with a signup page where you will be asked to fill out a number of important details. If you’d like to us to pay you via PayPal, you’ll also need to enter the email address related to your PayPal account. Alternatively, we’ll send you a paper cheque in the post.

It shouldn’t take too long to complete - maybe 5-10 minutes at most.

Hit the ‘Create My Account’ button at the bottom of the form, and you’re ready to go!

3. Share your referral link with your friends!

Now that you’ve got an account setup, simply login with the details you provided during the signup process, and look for your referral URL (as highlighted in the below screenshot).

Anyone who accesses our website via your unique referral link will be tracked, and if they go on to make a sale through our website, you’ll be offered 50% or 100% commission from the initial sale. It’s really that simple!

With 100% commission available on VPS and dedicated server ranges, you could easily make £100+ from referring a single friend.

Want to earn more by adding Text Links & Banners to your website?

If you have a popular website or blog, and would like to drive more traffic to us (via your affiliate link), we have prepared an extensive selection of text links, HTML Ads and Banners that you can add to the sidebar of your website for example. When a user clicks the banner, they’ll be tracked, and if they go on to make a sale you’ll be rewarded.

We even offer different banners for each of our services, which take users directly to the relevant page on our website. For example, if you’d like to promote our dedicated servers on your website (earning more commission in the process, compared to web hosting plans), simply copy over the HTML code of a dedicated banner, and your referral URL will be automatically included in the link.

Want to do an even bigger affiliate campaign?

If you plan on referring a large number of clients over to us, we’ll be more than happy to arrange bespoke campaign materials for you, such as a custom coupon code, banners, or even your own landing page. Simply get in touch, and we’ll do our best to help!

If you need a hand or have any questions, feel free to send an email over to [email protected], and I’ll do my best to help.
