The 20 Best SaaS Affiliate Programs to join  

Affiliate marketing or Affiliate marketing generates billions of dollars per year around the world, and therefore knowing the best affiliate programs becomes extremely important.

This is one of the fastest-growing parts of online marketing in recent years and one of the parts that generate the most money for affiliates and advertisers through the internet.

Before going to what you are waiting for, it is important that I clarify the difference between these two concepts.

They can sometimes be used without distinction, however when we talk about affiliate programs and platforms we mean two totally different things.

1. SEMRush

Everyone who visits my blog surely knows or at least has heard of SEMRush.

In fact, it is an SEO and Digital Marketing suite that offers a large number of features for you to take your sites and your brand to the maximum possible.

It is together with Ahrefs, possibly one of the most popular and most used SEO tools, both in Spanish and in other languages.

The SEMRush affiliate program offers high commissions:

  • $200 each time a new subscription is generated
  • 10 dollars for each new registered trial
  • $0.01 for each registration 🤣 (that’s not so funny)

2. SiteGround

Before SiteGround I tried many hosts, but after SiteGround I have not had the need to try any other.

Both its web speed, its support, its stability make it one of the most used and most valued hosting on the market.

That is why its price is not the cheapest on the market, something that goes hand in hand with the great benefits it offers.

In fact, their affiliate program offers very attractive commissions so that affiliates can promote their products.

I will detail:

  • If you manage to refer between 1 and 5 sales per month, the commissions are 50 dollars per sale.
  • Between 6 and 10 sales, the pay is $75 per sale.
  • If you manage to refer between 11 and 20 monthly sales, each commission will be 100 dollars.
  • More than 21 sales, the commissions will be personalized

3. Liquid Web

Liquid Web is another web hosting site.

Their focus is on hosting small and medium business sites, having more than 500,000 sites and nearly 50,000 customers across the globe.

What interests us most of course is your affiliate program:

  • 150% commission with each sale or contracted plan.
  • $150 minimum. Yes, if you sell a monthly plan for less than 30 dollars, you still receive 150 of the same currency.
  • 90 days of cookies

4. Elementor

Elementor is one of the most relevant visual web design-builders in the digital world.

An extraordinary plugin to design your custom website, with simple and easy features such as “drag and drop”.

It usually has a similar amount of enemies (not only Elementor but also Divi, Oxygen, and more builders) and followers in the world of SEO.

However, there is one thing that does not generate any kind of controversy, and I am talking about the amazing affiliate program that Elementor has.

5. Hostinger

As the name suggests, Hostinger is another web hosting site.

In this case, it is also one of the cheapest hosting sites for users in LATAM and the world.

Their prices start at less than 2 euros per month. Crazy!

That yes, I must also say it, it is not even close to my favorites.

But, if you are just starting out Hostinger can be your best solution.

6. Host Gator

This web hosting and hosting service is one of the “oldest” and most respected in the world.

In 2022 they turn 20, and they continue to be one of the most popular in these two decades.

It is true that its use is not as widespread in LATAM or Spain, however, it has more than 2 million hosted sites in its possession.

One of the most interesting things about HostGator is its affiliate program, which I comment on the most important below:

  • If you get between 1 and 5 referrals you receive 65 dollars for each one.
  • Between 6 and 10, you receive $75
  • From 11 to 20 affiliates, you get $100 for each of them.
  • If you get more than 21 affiliates, you receive $125 from each sale.
  • A not so good aspect is that you will charge 2 months + 10 days after its sale.

7. Cloudways

Cloudways is just another cloud hosting site, although it is not just one more.

It offers its more than 250 thousand hosted sites incredible speed and support.

Another amazing thing is their affiliate program:

  • You can earn up to $125 per sale if you exceed 46 monthly sales.
  • Otherwise you will receive from $50 if you sell from 1 to 5 plans.
  • You can even earn passive commissions as long as the referred user continues to use Cloudways.

8. Sendinblue

This tool’s main functionality is the service of sending emails and email marketing.

It is the first platform of its kind to appear on the list, but not the only one.

9. Hub Spot

HubSpot is amazing marketing software.

It is really an all-in-one, if we talk about CRM and customer management.

Its infinite possibilities of automation of social networks, lead generation, analytics, ticket system and customer service and much more have fallen in love with more than its 100,000 users, in the 7 continents (well, maybe Antarctica not).

10. GetResponse

We got to 10.

GetResponse is a multi-functional marketing platform.

The most prominent are the email marketing service, website builder, marketing automation, and also sales funnels.

As you can see, a super complete tool that will allow us to grow our projects, whether we are entrepreneurs, an agency, a digital marketer, or a very large company.

Their affiliate program allows you to earn $100 profit for each sale made.

11. Fiverr

And what to say about Fiverr that hasn’t already been said…

A gigantic platform that unites millions of freelancers of different kinds with companies or people like you or me who require a particular service.

Ideal for those who need logo designs, web design, social media, copywriters, and even backlinks.

Commissions vary depending on the promoted Fiverr service.

Between them we have:

  • fiverrlearn
  • fiverrworkspace
  • fiverrbussines

12. Teachable

This platform is intended to create courses and thus share your knowledge or expertise with the community.

Used by more than 100 thousand content creators, and according to what they count, they have sold more than 1 billion dollars in courses and mentorships.

If you want to create a course and sell it, Teachable is a great option, and it is also a great option if you want to promote their platform by offering it to content creators.

The Teachable affiliate program offers very interesting commissions.

13. Bluehost

Bluehost is another hosting on this list, and they go…

The truth is that if we talk about its characteristics, it is not even close to my favorites.

Although it is a cheap hosting – there are plans from 3 dollars per month – it is not the most suitable for large sites, companies or niches that require the best of the best.

If you’re just starting out, it can be a suitable budget option, although there are also cheaper and better ones.

14. Thrive Themes

This website offers templates and themes that have the function of achieving a great conversion and generating profits quickly and effectively.

You can also create funnels and landing pages, as well as email lists, even quizzes and tests.

That said, Thrive Themes is the template that will allow you to take your WordPress site to the next level when it comes to conversion.

If we talk about your affiliate program, there are certain aspects that really stand out:

  • 35% commission for each sale
  • 25% recurring commission
  • $20 payment threshold
  • Member Training

15. AppSumo

This platform is one of my favorites in the world of digital marketing.

Why?

Because with AppSumo I can get tools at an incredible price, even lifetime, thanks to the agreements that this company makes with software companies or entrepreneurs.

I have bought a lot of tools at a price really well below their real value thanks to AppSumo.

Also its affiliate system has great advantages:

  • You earn 100% of the sale for new users on AppSumo
  • 5% for purchases from existing AppSumo customers.
  • 30 days of cookies

16. Jarvis

Today, content creation using AI has grown enormously.

What’s more, at the end of November 2021, Google claimed that AI content ranked the same as content created by humans.

With the exception that, as long as that AI content responds to the search intent of the users.

This is where Jarvis comes into play.

17. Kinsta

This company offers ‘Premium’ hosting services to more than 22,000 companies throughout the world.

They offer speed and performance ‘top’ in the world of hosting and website hosting.

That is why Kinsta has become one of the preferred hostings for companies of various kinds in the business world.

But, without a doubt, one of the most impressive things about Kinsta is its affiliate program and commission ratios.

18. Shopify

Affiliates also reach platforms or CMS for e-commerce. In this case Shopify.

A company of Canadian origin, founded in 2004 that today is one of the most recognized platforms for creating online stores in the world.

More than 1,700,000 businesses use Shopify, and the company boasts that it has generated more than 200 billion dollars from its users over the years.

Their affiliate system requires a minimum of $25 commission and is paid only through PayPal up to 2 times a month.

19. WP Engine

It is one of the most valued hosting by users in all these years.

WP Engine is really a well-known brand in terms of WordPress website hosting.

It offers plans starting at $23 per month.

Regarding its affiliate program there are several points to highlight:

  • 10% commission per sale
  • Extra bonus of 10% of the total commission earned from 5 sales.
  • Payments at 60-180 days.
  • You can earn by the referrals of your referrals

20. WP Rocket

Optimizing the loading speed of your website is a primary positioning factor. We all know that!

In fact, a slow website makes people leave your site faster than a minor kicked out by nightclub security.

That is why a caching plugin like WP Rocket makes a lot of difference.

More than 2 million optimized sites, and more than 220 thousand satisfied customers speak for themselves.
