Earn money by recommending podcast hosting companies
If you have a high-traffic review site, blog, or affiliate site, recommending podcast hosting companies can be a good way to earn an income.
The key to success is traffic. The more traffic you have the more visitors you can send to the different hosting companies.
Here's an example:
Let's say you send 10,000 visitors to Transistor, and 200 start a trial. After the 14-day free trial, 150 become paying customers.
With 150 paying referrals, you would earn $1,000 per month as a Transistor affiliate.
