Terms of Service

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

This Affiliate Terms of Service Agreement (the "Agreement") is a legal agreement and contains all of the terms and conditions between Webs, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Webs") doing business as Pagemodo and you, together with any company or other business entity you are representing, if any, (collectively, ”you” or the "Affiliate") who is participating in the Webs Affiliate Program (the "Program"). BY JOINING AS AN AFFILIATE IN THE PROGRAM, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS IN THIS AGREEMENT. If you do not agree to the terms of this Agreement, do not join the Program. You agree that Webs may change the terms of this Agreement in its sole discretion at any time without notice. If you do not agree to the changes proposed by Webs, or to any terms in this Agreement, your sole and exclusive remedy is to cancel your participation in the Program. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Webs reserves the right to terminate, cancel, suspend or refuse access to the Program to anyone in its sole discretion. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, any new features or products that change, augment or enhance the current Program shall be subject to this Agreement.

2. AFFILIATE REFERRALS

1. Referral Link. You can earn a commission for purchases made by every Member (as defined in Section 5.1 below) you refer to Webs. To be eligible for such commissions, each referral must originate from a specially-coded Referral Link and make a successful purchase within thirty (30) days of referral. For purposes of this Agreement, "Referral Link" means a visible graphic or textual indication which, when selected by an end user, directs the end user's Internet browser connection to a Webs-specified page or file via a URL and which establishes a direct connection between the browser and the Webs-specified page or file. You agree to place the Referral Link on the Affiliate website or otherwise provide the Referral Link to a respective Member, which will allow Webs to track any person, entity or otherwise who clicks through the Referral Link to register for the Webs services.
2. Linking to Webs. The necessary electronic graphic artwork and corresponding links to Webs website and all HTML thereto for the Referral Link is made available to you via ShareASale Affiliate Network. You may not modify or alter the Referral Link without prior written consent of Webs. The HTML for such link will also include a special promotion identifier that enables the tracking and reporting of all Members acquired through the Referral Link. You must ensure that each of the links between your site and Webs properly utilizes our Referral Link formats and guidelines.
3. Tracking and Reporting. For the purposes of this Agreement, tracking and reporting will be provided by ShareASale Affiliate Network, the third party provider responsible for serving Referral Links and providing tracking, reporting and payment in connection with this Agreement. You agree and acknowledge that the statistics and reports provided by ShareASale are the official, definitive and final measurements of the number of Members that have originated from the Referral Link as well as the fees payable to Affiliate from Webs pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

3. MARKETING AND PROMOTIONS

Subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Webs hereby grants Affiliate a nonexclusive, non-transferable license to use the Webs trademarks, logos, and copyrighted material ("Webs Marks") solely on the Affiliate's website and solely in connection with this Agreement.

This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the United States and the state of Maryland.

This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior oral or written agreements or understandings between the parties as to the subject matter of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of the Agreement). In the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provisions shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. Headings and captions are for convenience only and are not to be used in the interpretation of this Agreement. The failure of Webs to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement may be entered into electronically, and without the necessity of written signatures.

12. ADWARE

Webs enforces a zero tolerance policy for adware. Adware as defined by Webs is any software, toolbar or device that can set a cookie without a click, show an ad over another person’s website or take credit for a sale that was not referred off of the Affiliate’s own website. Adware can include but is not limited to toolbars, BHOs, reminderware, couponware, loyaltyware, PPV advertising, interstitial advertising, contextual advertising, etc. If found using this type of method, all sales, regardless of origin will be immediately reversed and the Affiliate will be terminated with or without warning.

Pagemodo Affiliate Program FAQs

How do I get in contact with you if I have a problem or question?

Contact our Affiliate Manager by writing to affiliates@webs.com.

How much does it cost to join the Pagemodo Affiliate Program?

Nothing! The Pagemodo Affiliate Program is free to join and participate in. We are the ones paying you for promoting us, so there’s no reason why you should have to pay to join the program.

Can I join if I am a current or previous Pagemodo customer?

Yes. Who better to promote Pagemodo than the people who have used or still use our services?

What platform do you use to administer the Affiliate Program?

We use ShareASale. ShareASale provides the technology that enables us to add and manage affiliates and ensure that commissions are paid accurately and on a timely basis.

When will I get paid?

You will get paid when ShareASale pays their affiliates. ShareASale pays out on the 20th of the month for the affiliates who have met the minimum payout criteria collectively across all merchants.

What is your minimum payment threshold?

Although we do not have a minimum payment threshold, ShareASale does. You’ll have to check with them by either submitting a ticket through their system or adjusting your own threshold by editing your account settings. You can always contact them as well by writing to shareasale@shareasale.com.

Why do you not allow PPV, Contextual, Toolbars, BHOs, Couponware, Reminderware, Pop-ups, etc.?

Because the end user may or may not have opted into the adware you are using--but the webmaster whose site you are showing ads over never opted in. If you show an ad over the Pagemodo website when a shopper reaches our site, you have to understand that we did not opt in to having you show ads on our site either. This is why we do not approve of this type of marketing or behavior. To us, this is essentially stealing traffic and will not be tolerated, even if your adware is not active within our program.

Why do you not allow trademark bidding?

If you are bidding on our trademarks then you are not bringing in new customers who have never heard of us. You may also be overwriting another affiliate’s cookie if the person found us through their site and then did a search to come back and find us again. Just like from our own internal efforts, the other affiliate did the work to introduce us to the new job seeker or customer, which is why we feel they should get the credit and not someone who is bidding on the trademark.

Why do you have such tight restrictions on coupon sites?

Although we are not opposed to partnering with coupon sites, we do not want to work with the coupon sites that only want to optimize for our trademarks or extensions of our trademarks. The goal of our Affiliate Program is to reach a new audience that we cannot reach on our own. By having coupon sites show up for Pagemodo coupons and tagging people with affiliate’s cookies that were already on our site, we would not benefit from this. Coupon sites that add us to their newsletters every month or show up and send traffic off of terms like “Facebook fan page coupons” do reach an audience we cannot reach and add value to us.

Why was I rejected?

If your application was rejected you can always write to us to find out why. Please remember that just because you were rejected doesn’t mean that we don’t want to partner with you. A rejection is also not a reflection on the quality of your site. Here is a list of common list of reasons why some affiliate applications get rejected:

• You did not list a working site on your application.
• You did not respond back to the email we sent you through the ShareASale interface.
• You did not have an FTC Affiliate advertising disclosure.
• You have a coupon or loyalty site without any content relevant to Pagemodo products and services.
• We did not see where there would be a good fit with the sites that you have listed.
• We did not feel the content or other advertisers would be a good fit with the Pagemodo brand.

Just because your application was declined doesn’t mean we do not want to work with you. Please write to us at affiliates@webs.com and we’ll look at your application again.

I don't see the banner sizes that I need for my sites. Can I create my own?

We do not encourage you to design your own banners. Instead let us know what size and what you need on them and we will gladly create them for you. Please contact us by writing to affiliates@webs.com and we’ll put your request in the graphic design department’s queue.

Tips on Promoting the Pagemodo Affiliate Program

PPC Marketing

Pay Per Click (PPC) is a great way to drive sales and leads with the Pagemodo Affiliate Program. What we recommend is to look for the longtail keyword phrases and add on modifiers like “cheap Facebook page builders” or “buy Facebook Fanpage templates”.

Some more phrases you may want to try are:

• Create a Facebook fanpage
• Facebook fanpage designs
• How to create a Facebook Fanpage
• Facebook Fanpage apps
• Free Facebook Fanpage apps
• Free Facebook Fanpage templates
• Cheap Facebook Fanpage designs

Pagemodo recommends that if you choose to use PPC, that you drive people to a landing page instead of directly to our site. By driving visitors to a landing page you’ll not only be able to try and get them to sign up for a newsletter so you can remarket to them over and over, but you’ll also be able to have a themed site that they can return to for more recommendations.
