The vast majority of our business comes from word-of-mouth referrals
from our current clients. To show our appreciation we are now offering
commissions on referrals. This is an especially successful way for
Groups and Associations to earn extra money for their organizations.
Businesses or individuals signing up for our Affiliate Program
earn 10% commission on eligible services the customer purchases through
your affiliate link.
To get credit for referrals:

Login” area if you are a current hosting client.

Additional Terms of Service
1) AGREEMENT. In this
Affiliate Agreement ("Agreement") "you" and "your" refer to the
individuals or companies that choose to participate in the Mountain View
Internet Affiliate Program, "we", us" and "our" refer to Mountain View
Internet.
2) Term of the Agreements:
The term of this Agreement will begin upon our acceptance of your
Affiliate application and will end when terminated by either party.
Either you or we may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or
without cause, by giving the other party written notice of termination.
You are only eligible to earn referral fees on sales occurring during
the term.
3) Representations:
You agree that all your advertising and promotion of our services shall
be truthful in nature. Any affiliate that falsely represents the
services offered by Mountain View Internet shall be immediately
deactivated without receiving any commissions owed, and may be subject
to criminal prosecution.
4) SPAM:
You agree that you shall not advertise our services through SPAM, which
we loosely define as unsolicited e-mailings or posting of messages to
unrelated Newsgoups or Message boards. Furthermore, any method used for
promotion of our services must not be in violation of the rules, or
terms, of that promotional medium.
5) Modification:
We may modify any of the terms and conditions contained in this
Agreement and on this page, at any time and in our sole discretion, by

AGREEMENT ON OUR SITE WILL CONSTITUTE BINDING ACCEPTANCE OF THE CHANGE.
If we deem that the changes to these terms are of significant nature, we
will make an effort to notify you of the revised terms via the e-mail
address that we have on record for you. It is our sole discretion as to
what changes shall be considered "significant", and our failure to
notify you of any changes to these terms SHALL NOT be viewed as a breech
