Partner with Net Locations
Many modern businesses are fueled by partnership arrangements; others partner with suppliers and providers of related or unique services to enhance their own marketing budgets. One of the advantages is a lower cost to market. It is estimated that 25% of all services and products sold in the USA are private labeled partnership based. Private label goods and services are available in a wide spectrum of industries from food, to household products, to Web hosting and more. According to a 2006 Time's Magazine Article even Google© is "bulking up on partnerships". Fast forward to 2011 and think about how far they have come with Google Apps and more.
Net Location's Partnership Program is intended for individuals or SMBs that want to add an extra service to their portfolio with a minimum investment and a reasonable return without having to devote hours of time each day to realize the benefits of the program.
| How the Net Location's Partner Program Works | Our partner program is designed in such a way that requires only a minimum monthly investment on your behalf. Most hosting partner programs (reseller if you like) charge a starter fee of $19.95 monthly and then provide you with only minimum disk space and data transfer, while they sell unlimited hosting plans for $5.00 monthly. Also as the number of domains you resell increases, so will your minimum monthly payments. This can easily top $125 a month or more. It's difficult for you to compete and control your costs as users come and go. In most cases they also leave you on your own when it comes to customer support, leaving you to handle those 3 a.m. support requests. The Net Location's Partner Program includes direct support to your customer through a white labelled support portal. The Net Locations Partner Program takes a different approach and is a "pay-as-you-go" set up allowing you to build your business without needless overhead:

| Bandwidth (Data Transfer) Pooling | We are well aware that hosting service providers are offering what they call "unlimited bandwidth" as a marketing ploy to attract customers. Of course unlimited bandwidth is nothing more than a myth - it exists only in the mind and not in the real world. More than anything it's a cozy thought for a customer to think that a bill for bandwith overage will never be issued. The truth of the matter is that any Website that starts using excessive amounts of bandwidth will overtax the server's CPU or node limits and either be shutdown or forced to sign up for a virtual or dedicated server by the hosting provider. If you read deep into the AUP (Acceptable USe Policy) of any hosting provider it will state that sites are not allowed to use more than a certain percentage of the CPU or server's node limits. So much for the unlimited bandwidth marketing gimmick. Obviously we can't provide you with unlimited bandwidth because it's nothing more than a fairy tale. We can and do provide bandwidth pooling to offer a buffer against data transfer overage fees for customers under the above mentioned shared hosting plans. So what is bandwidth pooling? It's a realy a simple concept. Consider this example: Let's assume a customer has a plan that includes 50GB monthly of data transfer. |

| Our Business Philosophy | Net Location's focus is on performance based hosting. What does this mean? Rather than attract customers by using marketing ploys such as unlimited data tranfer, storage, databases, email accounts and other unobtainable services, we have taken the stance that our customers want their sites to succeed and for a few dollars more a month is an investment worth making for a site that boasts high uptime numbers and performance when it's needed. The only way to provide hosting infrastuctures where Web services perform is to never oversell any server's capacity. This allows a server to breath a little and to have more CPU and memory and less I/O load. We use quality hardware and software and provide a high level of proactive server maintenance and security monitoring. We feel our four level support services are an important factor as to why have been in business since 1997. |
| Does our Partner Program make sense for you? | We are not a budget host and certainly have no intention of ever competing for business based strictly on price. Rather we take a value approach to our hosting services. If you're comparing our prices to budget hosts, while we'll be higher, we are certainly competitive; however, compare us to other hosting providers that share a similar modus operendi and we are more than fair in our pricing. We have provided best of breed hosting services since 1997 and continue to focus on constantly improving. Our partner program is well suited for professionals - web designers, developers, software vendors, busy portals - or any sites whose users will need reliable hosting services. If your business serves the SMB market, Net Locations will help you grow your revenues and boost your customer satisfaction. We will pass leads to our partners for all services and products that we don't offer. The Net Locations Partner Program with the way its setup, while maybe not a totally passive income stream, can add substantially to your bottom line over the years ahead. |
