Hello, I have been trying to promote webhosts by cashback incentives but no one really seems to buy that. Basically instant cashbacks cannot be provided becoz user will cancel purchase and will result in loss. www.cashbackhost.com is a site setup for that... i hardly make 3 sales permonth and two of it gets charged back. I know the hosting market is almost saturated, but is there any scope still?
The big problem concerning cash back is that generally, people don't trust in you. Other big problem is that is hard to be competitive in Web Hosting business if you earn just 50% of the income compared to your competitors.
Yes, some customers buy the host use fraud Credit card; and some host company support coupon code, if our customers buy host use their code, the sales is not blong to me! I fell it is hard to do in host market!
The webhosting market is highly saturated and extremely competitive. Most customers are going with big names nowadays due to lack of trust.
I totally agree that web hosting business is too competetive ( I am running the web hosting company myself and know the situation) though from my experinece affiliate networks can really bring in a good sales and traffic. It is not obvious that people will go with brands, if you take a time and read reviews on some established companies, you will be amazed how many unsatisfied customers there are on the web hsoting market. Though its a buyer`s market. If you have good website, with good traffic you will definitely be able to earn from web hosting affiliate program as web hosting business is the one that will never disappear. regards
