Very saturated and highly competitive today, indeed, NOT to mention the amount of
support you would need to provide should you decide to go a "reseller" route. Even
as an affiliate simply promoting it, I would strongly suggest choosing something else
to promote.
I would definitely still become an affiliate and promote some hosting when appropriate,
however, I would definitely not make it the sold basis of your promotional efforts. Take
the time you would spend promoting hosting and find some higher end commission based
products and/or services and promote those instead...
Many people have the mindset that promoting high end products/services is more difficult
than lower end or lower priced products. NOTHING could be further from the truth.
Think of it this way...
Let's take web hosting and speed boats for example... (JUST an example, don't flame me, lol)
If you take a week to really promote either item, assuming you've done your research and
you are promoting to the right audience, at the end of the week, would you rather walk
away with a $3 hosting commission or a $3,000 payday from the speed boat?
No matter what you decide to promote, you have to do your homework. Why not really make
it worth your while...
I know a guy who does nothing but promote motor homes. He makes a KILLING. A know tons
of people who make a killing promoting lower end products as well, but again, think of how many
ebooks they'd have to promote (and earn a sale on) to equal commissions from just 1 motor home...
I know I went a tad off-topic (which is not surprising for me, LOL), but I am just trying to explain
that no matter what you decide to promote, if you work SMARTER, you won't have to work HARDER
and your commission checks will be BIGGER making your wallet (or purse) that much FATTER!
Hope this helps!
