Default "This site uses Hostgator" banners

Hiya. I want to try your affiliate program, but I'd really prefer a more personal banner. The banners available all look very much like ads, and it doesn't seem as if the webmaster really knows or cares about the service. I'd love one that says "I use Hostgator" or "Powered by Hostgator" or something like that.


I suppose I wouldn't be allowed to alter one of your banners or make one out of the logo, would I?

Why not, if it helps them get more $$?

i would imagine they WOULD have a problem with modifying one of theirs, whether it brought money or not... its a branding issue they can't loose control over.

i bet they would have no problem at all if you created your own....they may even allow you to use their logo?

Matt: Hello. Would hostgator have a problem with me modifying your affiliate banners to say something more like "I use Hostgator" or "Powered by Hostgator" or something like that? So they can convert better on my website?
Scott: You would need to email sales@hostgator.com for questions about the affilaite program.
Live chat, helpful as always...

I suspect if you made the banner and sent it to sales, they would give you a quick approval.
