    Try and see what converts best when it comes to affiliate links or banners. Go daddy is a reputable company, they will pay you.

    Please pick another affiliate. Don't refer people to bad hosting.

    They pay but they are neither the best priced nor the most reliable hosting company. For one thing they have a bad record of parking your domains if they feel they aren't being used properly or to their full effect. Like that is ANYONE but your own decision to make!

    So if you are looking to affiliate for a hosting company I'd go with someone like HostGator or if affiliate selling for domains, I'd go with NameCheap, which really is cheaper, easier, and more pleasant to use *laugh*

    They definitely pay, but I don't recommend Godaddy. They pay less than most others as well.

    I also just don't support most of their business practices. Namecheap's where it's at yo.

    They definitely pay. they are a reliable company but not the best and they do pay you. I was looking at other posts and one member felt that Goddaddy was a bad hosting company! May I ask why? I respect your answer but I am curious because most people think that they are a pretty good service. I've never had to use customer service so I don't know what their customer service is like.
    However, I would recommend not using them and using someone else if it's possible and a 30% commission is not very "Amazing, Fabulous" lets say. Become an affiliate of AWeber instead.

      When you require "real" hosting and start using resources you'll see why. Their shady tactics, support for SOPA & horrible performing environments will prove what most say.

    GoDaddy definitely pays affilitate on time, however; you have to assess if their hosting service quality is a fit to your preference. Don't be afraid to explore other hosting sites where you can get more affiliate commision and ofcourse offer people a better hosting service.
