Going To Buy Section

How about a going to buy section?
I am just about to purchase IP Vanish and thought why not give a fellow BHW member the commission if they are an affiliate of what I want to buy? They could maybe PM me their affie link so as not to post these links on the forum.

What do you think?

Great idea. I need to buy hosting for a few websites.
If a member is contributing to the forum ofc, I will use his ref link.

Sounds a wonderful idea help everyone out overall.

Yes and you will get that with a discount

Sounds like a good idea but your inbox will be spammed, not for just one day, but for many coming days.

The idea sounds great but how do you control inbox spam? Imagine 50 members sending you the conversion.ai referral?
A regular member's inbox is already tiny, if they open two threads, their inboxes would be flooded.

And bumping old threads? Someone bumping your thread after a year will get you another 50 PMs with invite links.
If links are posted in the thread, that might help but then it will generate useless threads with hundreds of ref links in them.

Such concerns once taken care of can help a lot of contributing members in sharing their ref links and making something without anyone losing anything.

Affiliate links have a section in the terms of service as to what is allowed:

4. AFFILIATE LINKS

Affiliate links are permitted only in the "Affiliate Programs" section of the forum, or in your signature. Affiliate links include links to your website or blog which redirects to an affiliate link. If you wish to let people know about a new website or program, please create ONE thread in the Affiliate Programs forum and provide detailed information about the program, and include two links. One should be an affiliate link and one a non-affiliate link. You MUST give others the choice to sign up through your link. Also, do not try to circumvent the Terms by posting about an affiliate program, and requesting others to private message you for additional information. Such conduct is no different than affiliate link spam. In those circumstances BlackHatWorld.com reserves the right, but is not obligated, to remove your affiliate link, and to issue an infraction or implement a ban, upon notification of any violation of this Section 4.

If you want to buy hosting why not head over to the hosting section in the marketplace? https://www.blackhatworld.com/forums/hosting.196/
