BlueHost
Extras Summary
BlueHost
never stops in
giving its clients
the best possible
deal they can.
This is why, BlueHost
Extras were introduced
to cater to the
growing needs
of its clients
and to better
provide them with
good options.
Various promotional
offers and special
offers are what
comprised BlueHost
Extras. In return
BlueHost gets
advertising fee
and commissions
as well for every
promotion they
conduct.
Once
you login to your
BlueHost account
or to your Cpanel,
you can enjoy
the services provided
by BlueHost Extras
since you registered
for it. For ease
of use, the BlueHost
Extras images
are located on
the homepage of
Cpanel to make
it visible and
accessible.
The
BlueHost Extras
and promotions
you can benefit
from include the
following: Google
Adwords Promotion,
Dynamic Payment
Solution, Yahoo
Search Marketing,
and Boxed Art
Templates.
The
Google Adwords
Promotion is a
partner of BlueHosts,
hence clients
of BlueHost can
enjoy $50 credit
once they open
new actions with
Adwords. On the
other hand, Dynamic
Payment Solutions,
another partner
of BlueHost, offers
a compensation
processing fee
with discounts
and other special
price gateway
fees.
Another
BlueHost Extra
is the Yahoo Search
Marketing which
provides BlueHost
clients a $50
free credit the
moment they register
a new account
of Yahoo Search
Marketing. Lastly,
BlueHost has successfully
acquired a deal
from Boxed Art
which is a 5 per
cent discount
on the total purchase
of all website
templates.
BlueHost
definitely knows
how to care and
attract customers
hence employing
a program like
BlueHost Extras
is a good move.
BlueHost
Extras Details
Along
with providing
hosting services,
BlueHost also
offers many specials
and promotional
offers on products
and services that
Webmasters would
be interested
in. It is most
likely that BlueHost
receives some
commission or
advertising fee
for displaying
these offers to
their customers.
However some of
them are quite
good offers. I
have chosen a
few of these BlueHost
extras to feature
below.
All
the offers are
available when
you login to your
Cpanel once you
sign up. Below
is a screenshot
of the promotion
and offers section
on the homepage
of Cpanel.
Google
Adwords Promotion
Bluehost
has partnered
with Google Adwords
to give their
customers a free
$50 credit for
new accounts with
Adwords. However
when you sign
up for Google
Adwords you will
be charged a $5
activation fee.
Unforutantely
I already have
an account with
Google Adwords
so was unable
to avail the offer,
however if you
haven't signed
up with Adwords
I certainly recommend
you sign up and
get the $50 free
credit and see
if you can make
adwords for your
business/website.
Yahoo
Search Marketing
Much
like the Google
offer, BlueHost
has partnered
with Yahoo search
marketing to offer
a $50 free credit
to new accounts
of Yahoo search
marketing. As
with adwords,
Yahoo has a non-refundable
$5 setup fee.
Dynamic
Payment Solutions
BlueHost
has partnered
with Dynamic Payment
Solutions (DPS)
to offer a payment
processing gateway
at discounted
rates. DPS is
offering a free
merchant account
( no setup fee)
and free shopping
cart. On their
website they say
that the shopping
cart they are
offering is worth
$150. Bluehost
customers will
receive a rate
of 2.10% on transactions
along with a per
transaction fee
of 30 cents. In
addition to this
there is a monthly
gateway fee of
$15 and a monthly
statement fee
of $10. They also
have a monthly
minimum of $15.
Although the free
setup looks good,
overall the transaction
costs seem high.
Boxed
Art Templates
Bluehost
has also negotiated
a 5% discount
for BlueHost customers
on all website
template purchases
from Boxed Art.
