    Sign up here and get your unique in link - with a choice of 2 (not brilliant) banners, or simply a link (feel free to get creative).

    If you get us 10 customers a month, you will make over $1000 a year, not bad, heh?

    We are a fairly new host, and just picking up, so we thought, why not give to get?

    that's not bad but what is, is that you're hosting your customers on the same server as your site.
    whois guard - not that bad but looks like you could not be a registered company
    and you have a referal link on your site... no note of a physical presence
    you're charging in $ from England and hosted in .nl seems weird... I would have charged in GBP or EUR...

    USD is more international, at one point I did have a link in the top right where you could switch between all three (that is USD, GBP and EUR).
    Reference to me as the owner is made through things like Facebook and Twitter, I have not seen a need to put my picture on there, should I have too?
    The server is in NL because of price... That is all (budget = slim).

    my point is - if you're in england it's only £20 to register a company - so why not do that and then unprotect whois...

    I was looking at Ltd registration - but to tell you the truth, I have no clue beyond the web.
    My business knowledge with that type of thing is... well...
    That much.
    Would you recommend me getting Ltd registered?

    yes, as well apart from the nice name hiding, if you are paying people im sure legally you have to be a business not 100% sure though

    Ahh, I'm not paying anyone - I work 18 hours a day on my own! :/
    I will register as a Ltd, as the only share holder, non the less.

    You request the money when you wish.
    If you get one gold sign up, you get $8.4, instantly (into your virtual account, when you request it, It'll get sent to your paypal).

    Yeah, at the minute, I will make it so that it rolls on for the duration of the account, when I get round to it (maybe a week or so).
    But you can (obviously) refer as many people as you like.

    And, obviously, you can withdraw your money at any time you like, as often as you like.
