What is the best coupon code for me?

Shared, Reseller, VPS, and Dedicated coupons

You can find our current coupon code while placing your order. The coupon will automatically appear after you choose the billing cycle for your new plan.

The 20% off coupon can be used by new and existing customers. It only applies to new orders, and only includes the months of hosting (not domain registrations) that are part of your initial order. If you sign up for more than one month on the shared plans, we do discount all of the months.

Dedicated and VPS customers, you will NOT be able to use the 20% off coupon and pay annually or semi-annually. You can't sign up for more than one month of dedicated or VPS on our website; therefore, the coupon is only good for the first month.


We have a second coupon code called 'hgc25'. The hgc25 coupon takes $9.94 off any new hosting purchase by a new customer. Use this for any initial order totaling $49.70 or less (new customers only).

So, I can get Baby hosting for a penny? Yes, you can use the hgc25 coupon to get the first month of Baby hosting for only a penny. We want you to try our Baby hosting with no risk. You still get the 45-day money-back guarantee on your penny.

So, can I get Baby for free if I choose the cheaper payment option? No, you will pay many months in advance, so the signup price will not be less than $9.94

So, can I get Hatchling for free? No, the coupon will only take $8.94 off a Hatchling plan, so the first month costs a penny.


SEO Hosting Coupon
There are no coupon codes on the seohosting.com site, but I have a code here for $35 off your initial order. Coupon code 35off


Other Coupons
Any other coupon codes may simply be duplicates of our official $9.94 off coupon. They may also be coupons that are not available to the public. I apologize, but I do not have any of those coupon codes.

Can my referral use 20% off coupon code and i still get paid a commission of 50$ ?

HostGator
Yes, your referrals can use coupons and that has no affect on how much you make.

Please read the related article "Affiliate coupon codes?"

wct
what about 1 cent coupon,can i still get paid a commission of 50$?

HostGator
Yes, your referrals can use coupons, and you still make the same money.

Just remember that your customer must enter the coupon code for themselves. You cannot sign-up for your referrals and you cannot include the coupon automatically in your affiliate link.

Paul
How long are coupon codes used before they are changed? Do old codes remain valid for a period of time? i.e. if I had an outdated code on a website will it still work?

Do affiliates get notified of updates to the coupon codes?

HostGator
Coupons are typically good for 1 to 3 months. Outdated coupons will not work.

You can always have the most recent coupon code by clicking through our order wizard until the coupon is displayed.

Hi, If my referrals use 1 cent coupon code and cancel his/her account after that 1-cent month, can I still receive $50 comission?

HostGator
"HostGator reserves the right to only pay for referrals that are active."

Meaning, active at the time we pay you. Commissions are paid approximately 60 to 90 days after signup.

Hi
I am interested in starting with the baby plan for $0.01, but can I then upgrade to the reseller plan and use the 20% off coupon?
Thanks

HostGator
No, you may not use a coupon during an upgrade or downgrade.

jim
How hard is it to upgrade from HG Business to HG Reseller?
Can I pay for more than 1 month up-front?

HostGator
This is extremely easy; simply submit the upgrade form found at http://hostgator.com/upgrade .

After you upgrade, you may then request to pay for multiple months.

If I use an affiliate banner/link on my site, and someone click on it but than he/she puts a coupon code that is not mine, am I still elegible for the commision, or is the one that has the coupon? (or both)

HostGator
UPDATE: You get the commission when they click your link, no matter what HostGator coupon code they use.

However, if they use another affiliate's coupon, then that affiliate will get the commission.

Ken
Can I use the baby coupon code to try out 1 month for one penny and later change to hatchling?

HostGator
Yes, you may upgrade or downgrade at any time.

Remember, upgrades are no extra cost (just pay the difference between the cost of the plans), but there is a $10 fee to downgrade (and we credit you the difference between the cost of the plans).

Vincent
Can I use a coupon in the second month? say a 20% off coupon for hatchling package, if I have used it in the first month?

HostGator
No, coupons or discounts are only valid towards the initial purchase, and do not affect the renewal or recurring price.

Karen
I created a coupon code in the Affiliate control panel. It says "Here you may create custom coupon codes which can be used at signup to give customers a discount of $9.94 off the package price. "

So does this mean that someone that uses my coupon must purchase at least a 1 year plan? Does it apply to shared, reseller, VPS and dedicated plans?

And will my coupon expire?

HostGator
Your coupon will work on any plan for any amount of time. The coupon will not expire.

rudy
Hi,
I have someone sign up for Hostgator via my link affiliates.
But He input coupon code from this page.

Will I get commision?

Thanks

HostGator
If he signed up through your affiliate link, if not it was not tracked.

Phinos
I just created a coupon code in the existing manage coupons in my affiliate panel, named DISCOUNTPRO. what happens if another affiliater create coupons with the same name? Can I promote it via ppc?

I read on the support portal that says 20% discount coupon only, but in manage coupons in my affiliate panel says $ 9.94 discount. Which is correct?

HostGator
The coupon codes you create are unique, meaning only one coupon with that name can exist in our system.

This portal does not say your coupons are 20% off; it says our coupon is 20% off. Your coupon will be $9.94 off (Baby or Hatchling for a penny).
