At Site Design Squad, we believe that getting a professional website should be easy and affordable. That is why we spread the cost of our web design packages over 24 months, rather than asking for thousands of pounds upfront. It helps small businesses get started without the financial stress.
But we can’t reach everyone on our own.
If you have clients, or an audience who may need a new website, a speed boost, or someone to look after their WordPress site, you can now earn money by referring them to us.
In 2025 we decided to launch our new Affiliate Programme. It is simple to join, easy to use, and offers a generous reward. So if you’re looking generate some extra money, continue reading to learn more about the programme and how to sign up.
How does it work and how much can I earn?
We like to keep things simple and fair. Here is exactly what you get when you partner with us:
- 10% Commission: You earn 10% on the sales you generate.
- 60-Day Cookie: When someone clicks your link, we remember them for 60 days. If they buy anything from us within that time, you get the commission.
- £50 Minimum Payout: Once you have earned £50 in commissions, we pay you.
What is a “Cookie”?
In the tech world, a cookie is a small tracking file. If you send a client to our site today, but they don’t buy until next week, the cookie tells our system: “This person came from [Your Link]. Pay them!”
Because ours lasts for 60 days, you don’t have to worry if they don’t buy immediately.
Who Is This For?
Our programme is open to anyone looking to increase their income. You don’t need to be a professional marketer to join.
Our programme is perfect for:
- Business Coaches & Consultants: Your clients often need a website to launch their new ideas.
- Agencies & Freelancers: Do you offer logo design or copywriting but not web design? Refer the build to us, and we will handle the technical side while you earn a fee.
- Accountants & Other Professionals: You are often the first person a new business owner speaks to. Help them manage their startup cash flow by recommending our monthly payment plans instead of a big upfront cost. It’s a win for their budget and a win for you.
- Happy Clients: If we built your site and you love it, why not get paid for telling other businesses you work with?
- IT Support Companies: If you fix computers or work in other areas of IT support that doesn’t involve web design, and have business clients that need a website, send those web queries our way.
