Affiliate Program FAQ
Q: What is the HOME AROUND THE WORLD Affiliate Program?
A: Our affiliate program is a simple and easy way for you to make money 24/7 from HOME AROUND THE WORLD, the Internet's premier gay home exchange program, whilst providing your own site with valuable travel product. As an affiliate partner, we provide you with banners or links to place on your website. We pay you 20% (twenty percent) commission on every membership using a tracking system that enables us to accurately monitor all traffic coming directly from your website.
Q: Is the Affiliate Program free to join?
A: Yes. There is no cost to become a HOME AROUND THE WORLD affiliate. In fact we pay you. It's a win-win situation!
Q: How do I sign up?
A: It's easy. First read our Terms & Conditions and then contact us, providing some basic information about your business. We will revue your site and will send you all the necessary information to enable you to download a HATW banner and paste our URL into your website's HTML.
Q: Where should I place the links on my website?
A: We recommend you place a link where it is easy for your visitors to find. For example: your home page, your navigation bar, and any other high-traffic areas. The easier the link is to see, the more traffic you will generate to our site and therefore the more commissions you can make.
Q: What do I do once the link is on my site?
A: As little or as much as you like! You can either simply leave the link to do its own work, or you can proactively promote HOME AROUND THE WORLD on your site or in your newsletters. Remember the more exposure you give us, the more revenues you earn.
Q: How can I "actively promote HOME AROUND THE WORLD"?
A: Should you wish to supply your site visitors with detailed information about our services, contact us, and we will be delighted to supply you with fresh custom-written copy for you to place on your site or in your newsletters. We'll make it easy for you!
Q: How do we know when a sale has been made?
A: You will automatically receive an email to advise you that your site has generated a sale.
Q: How does HOME AROUND THE WORLD track its affiliate sales?
A: All links originating from your site to HOME AROUND THE WORLD contain a specially formatted tag to identify your site. With every referred sale made within the 3-month window we credit your account. It's that simple.
Q: What is a 3-month window?
A: Some people join HATW the first time they visit our site. Others wish to talk to their partners, look at the site together and then join. As long as someone takes out a membership with us, within 3 months of visiting our site from having clicked the banner or text link on your site, you will receive commission from us.
Q: When is payment made?
A: Payments are made at the end of the first week of each month. The payment will be for all sales generated from the previous month.
