Affiliate FAQ

In the Client area you can find "Affilate" link at the top of the page. That link generates a unique code for each client to use on their website. When a visitor clicks this link they will be taken to our site and a cookie saved on their computer. If the visitor then places an order with the cookie present (it lasts for 90 days by default) you will earn a commission.

Q- Do I have to have a hosting account with Elcoserv before I can earn money as an Affiliate?

Q- I don't like any of the available affiliate link buttons/banners, can I have a more extensive choice?
A- You can request modification of a button so that it better matches your site. Contact support with your requests.

Q- How do I activate my affiliate status from within my Client Area?
A- After you log into your Client Area click the "Affilate" link at the top of the page. From there click "Affiliates", this should take you to the url:"https://my.elcoserv.com/affiliates.php". On this page click the button labeled "Activate Affiliate Account". You should now be activated and see your unique Affiliate link and a selection of buttons and banners.
