General answers
  1. How do I get started?
    To join the Web Now affiliate program, all you need to do is read the affiliate agreement and fill out the application form. As soon as that's done, you will be approved instantly. We will then send you your ID and password, which you can use to log into the affiliate partner area. After that, all you need to do is cut and paste the HTML code provided for you and set up the link. Back to top
  2. How does the program work?
    The affiliate (you) places the link on the website. You only need to sign up once. You can place as many of Web Now links, banners Etc on as many web pages as you like. With your partner ID, we can track all the clicks and visitors you send us. So, after a visitor is redirected from your site to ours, we record that this visitor came from you. Then, when that visitor makes a confirmed order, you receive commission.

    Each visitor sent by you receives a cookie that remains active for 100 days, allowing us to track and pay you for the booking made by that visitor, even if he/she comes back to Web Now directly within 100 days from the initial click through. Back to top
  3. I have more than one website. Can I use my affiliate ID and links on that site also?
    Absolutely, you can use your affiliate links on as many sites and/or web pages as you like. There is no need to sign up more then once. Just make sure that you do not alter the affiliate URLs in any way when you place them on your site(s). All the clicks and orders will be tracked to your account from every site. Back to top
  4. Who is eligible to become a Web Now affiliate?

    We believe that once you affiliate with us, you will have no more need for another Web Design/Hosting partner.

  8. When I click on my affiliate URL, it seems to redirect to Web Now and my ID disappears. Is this normal?
    Yes, that is how our system works. When a client clicks on your affiliate URL, our system reads the affiliate ID and send the user to a default page. It then tracks all subsequent clicks and orders to your account. As long as you set up your affiliate URL(s) correctly, all the user activity will be tracked properly. Back to top
