How to Create Affiliate Links for Specific HostAfrica Products

On this page

Did you know you can create affiliate links for any HostAfrica South Africa products e.g HMailPLus? The Affiliate Link Generator makes it super easy to share the right product links, and track every click that earns you a commission.


An affiliate link is a special tracking link that tells us which affiliate brought a customer to HostAfrica.
It looks something like this:

hostafrica.co.za/web-hosting/?aff=2654

That little part at the end aff=2654 is your affiliate ID, and it’s how we know to credit you for the sale.

Note: That number at the end, aff=2654 is just an example. Your own affiliate link will have a different number that’s unique to you,  that’s how we know which sales to credit to your account.


How to Generate Links for specific products

We’ve made it super easy with our Affiliate Link Generator tool. Here’s how to use it:

Step 1: Go to the Affiliate dashboard
