Why promote it even without a discount?
Many partners automatically use discount coupons. These are especially useful for promotional offers. However, for reviews, articles, comparisons, or expert recommendations, a well-placed affiliate link is often all that’s needed.
Higher commission per order
If a customer places an order at full price, the commission is calculated based on the total amount paid. This may result in a higher commission than for an order placed at a discount.
Ideal for articles and reviews
When it comes to specialized content, customers often aren't just looking for the lowest price. They want recommendations, expertise, and a clear explanation of why they should choose a particular service.
Suitable for long-term storage
You can include an affiliate link in an article, guide, or comparison that can bring you orders over the long term.
Did you know that a discount isn't necessary?
If a customer comes through your affiliate link and places an order without using a discount coupon, it is still considered an affiliate order. The difference is that the commission is calculated based on the full price paid.

Step-by-Step Instructions
The basic principle is simple. You create a text campaign, select an appropriate affiliate link, and use it without a discount coupon.
Log in to the affiliate dashboard
Open the affiliate dashboard at partner.wedos.as and log in to your affiliate account.
Create a new text campaign
In the admin panel, go to the "Text Campaign" section, click "+ Campaign," and enter a name for your campaign. The name is mainly for your own reference within the admin panel.
Select an affiliate link for the product
Select the affiliate link for the service or product you want to promote. This could be, for example, web hosting, WordPress hosting, domains, or another service from our offerings.
Do not include a discount code in the link
For this promotional option, use only the affiliate link. Do not include the discount code in the article, review, buttons, or email.
Insert the link into the content
Include the affiliate link in an article, review, comparison, button, banner, newsletter, or recommendation on your website. In this campaign, use it on its own without including a discount code.
When should you use a discount coupon, and when should you use a link without a discount?
Both options make sense. The important thing is to choose the right approach based on the type of promotion.
A discount coupon comes in handy when:
- Do you want to encourage customers to place an order more quickly,
- you're promoting a limited-time offer,
- You're targeting customers who compare prices,
- you're creating a campaign based on a specific discount,
- You want to increase conversion rates among undecided customers.
A link without a discount is useful when:
- Are you writing a review, a guide, or a comparison,
- Do you recommend the service based on your experience,
- You're targeting customers who aren't just looking for the lowest price,
- Do you want to earn a commission based on the full price of the order,
- You're creating long-form content for SEO.
Where should I place the affiliate link?
An affiliate link without a discount works best when the customer is given a clear reason to choose the service.
To the service review
Describe your experience with the service, its benefits, performance, support, and specific situations in which it makes sense to use it.
To the comparison article
Compare different types of hosting and explain who a particular service is best suited for.
To the instructions
For example, guides on launching a website, choosing a hosting provider, migrating a website, or speeding up WordPress.
