The most effective way to promote Tremhost as an affiliate is to recommend it where people already ask you about websites: to your own clients, in tutorials you write or record, and in answers to specific questions such as “where do I register a .co.zw?”. Honest, specific recommendations to the right audience convert far better than banner ads or link spam. Tremhost pays 15% commission on every sale you refer, with a three-month referral cookie and payouts from $100.
How the Tremhost affiliate programme works
As described on the affiliate page on 5 November 2026:
- Commission: 15% of every sale you refer.
- Cookie: three months, so a visitor who clicks your link today and buys within three months is credited to you.
- Payout: request it once your balance reaches $100, by bank transfer, EcoCash, InnBucks, Payoneer or crypto.
- Tools: a unique referral link, a dashboard of clicks, sign-ups and earnings, email notifications, and branded referral codes on request.
- Cost: free to join, and you do not need your own website.
The arithmetic is simple: commission equals referrals times order value times 15%. Four people buying $30-a-year hosting in a month earns $18. Treat any estimate as yours, not a promise.
Know what you are recommending
People trust a recommendation that tells them exactly what they get. Learn the facts you will be asked about most:
- Web hosting from $30 a year on the Himalaya plan, with cPanel, LiteSpeed, NVMe storage, free SSL, unlimited mailboxes and daily backups.
- Business email from $5 a month for 50 mailboxes.
- Domains: .co.zw from $6.99 a year and .com at $15.99.
- No introductory pricing: plans renew at the sign-up price.
- Payment in US dollars by EcoCash, InnBucks, ZimSwitch, Omari, Visa, Mastercard or cryptocurrency.
- Support from a Harare team by ticket, WhatsApp or booked call, Monday to Friday 08:00 to 17:00 CAT.
- Free migration from another cPanel host, and a 30-day refund on the first order for hosting, managed WordPress, business email and reseller hosting.
Do not promise things the company does not offer, such as round-the-clock phone support. Overstated claims lead to refunds and lost trust.
Eight practical ways to promote Tremhost
1. Recommend it to your own clients
If you design websites, your clients need hosting, email and a domain. Recommending a host you know, with your link, is the most natural referral there is. If you would rather bill clients yourself and keep the whole margin, reseller hosting may suit you better than affiliate commission.
2. Write tutorials that solve a real task
“How to set up a WordPress site for your shop”, “how to get email on your own domain” or “how to register a .co.zw” attract readers who are about to buy. Show the actual steps and mention where you host.
3. Make short videos
Screen recordings of installing WordPress in cPanel or setting up email on a phone are useful and easy to make. Put your link in the description with a clear note that it is an affiliate link.
4. Answer questions where they are asked
Facebook groups, LinkedIn, forums and community WhatsApp groups are full of “who can host my site?” questions. Answer the question properly first; add your link only where the rules allow it. Never spam groups or message strangers in bulk.
5. Write honest comparisons
If you compare hosts, use each provider’s own published prices and terms, note the date, and say which suits which kind of user. Readers can tell when a comparison is rigged.
6. Use a branded referral code
A code with your name is easier to remember than a numbered link, which helps with word-of-mouth and offline referrals. Ask Tremhost on WhatsApp to set one up.
7. Target specific audiences
Schools, churches, NGOs, small shops and professionals each have specific needs. A post on “website and email for a small school” will convert better than a generic “best hosting” list.
8. Track and refine
Use the dashboard to see which posts and channels bring sign-ups and orders. Do more of what works and drop what does not.
Build one page you can point people to
If you have a blog or portfolio, create a short “tools I use” or “how to get your business online” page. List the domain, hosting and email you recommend, why you chose them, what each costs and who each suits. Link to it from your email signature, social profiles and invoices. When a client or follower asks what to buy, you send one link instead of retyping an answer, and the page keeps earning long after you write it. Update the prices whenever they change, and remove anything you no longer use.
Rules to follow
- Disclose that you earn a commission. It is honest and, in many places, a legal requirement for endorsements.
- Do not bid on Tremhost’s brand name in paid search or pose as the company.
- Do not use fake reviews or invented results.
- Do not refer yourself to earn commission on your own orders unless the programme terms allow it.
