Your affiliate dashboard is the [Affiliates page](https://dashboard.ruachost.com/affiliates.php) in the client area. Log in, then click **Affiliates** (in the menu or under your name).

## What you'll see

| Item | What it means |
| --- | --- |
| **Referral link** | Your personal link to share |
| **Clicks** | How many times people have visited Ruachost through your link |
| **Signups** | How many people bought through your link |
| **Conversion rate** | The share of clicks that became sales |
| **Commissions pending maturation** | Commission still in its 30-day waiting period |
| **Available commissions balance** | Approved commission you can withdraw |
| **Total amount withdrawn** | Everything you've been paid so far |
| **Referrals** | Each referred order, with the date, product, amount, commission and status |

## Sharing your link

Copy your referral link and use it anywhere you talk about hosting:

- in reviews, tutorials and "how I built my website" posts
- in your website's footer ("Hosted by Ruachost")
- in videos and their descriptions
- in proposals and handover documents for your clients

## Linking to a specific plan

Your referral link takes visitors to ruachost.com. Once someone has clicked your link, the 90-day cookie is set, so any hosting they buy on ruachost.com in that time counts, whichever page they go to next.

To send people straight to a plan, ask them to click your referral link first, then choose the plan.

## Why isn't my referral showing?

- **The customer cleared their cookies,** used a different browser or device, or blocked cookies, so the click wasn't linked to the order.
- **They bought more than 90 days after clicking.**
- **They clicked another affiliate's link** after yours.
- **They were already a Ruachost customer,** or ordered something other than hosting.
- **The order isn't paid yet.** Commission appears once the invoice is paid.

If you think a referral is missing, [open a ticket](https://dashboard.ruachost.com/submitticket.php) with the customer's domain name and order date. We'll check it.
