Refer a Business to Privatenode and Get Paid for It
If you know a business owner who needs a better website, reliable WordPress hosting, or ongoing site support, make the introduction. We’ll take great care of them, and we’ll take care of you too.
Why refer us
Your Referral Will Thank You
When you send someone to Privatenode, you’re not pointing them toward a faceless hosting company or a generalist agency that builds sites on the side. You’re connecting them with a local WordPress team that has been doing this for 22+ years, knows the Research Triangle business community, and stays accountable long after a project wraps up.
That’s the kind of referral that builds trust.

What Makes Privatenode Worth Referring?
Local and Accountable
We’re based in Holly Springs. Your contact can walk into a meeting with us, call us directly, or get a real answer without waiting in a support queue.
22+ Years of Design and Hosting Experience
We’ve been building and managing WordPress sites since before most agencies made it their specialty. Your referral gets that experience working for them.
No Bloated Themes or Page Builders
Every site we build is clean, fast, and built to last. No shortcuts, no drag-and-drop spaghetti code.
Support That Doesn’t Stop at Launch
We offer managed hosting, care plans, & maintenance. Businesses we work with don’t get handed off to a ticket system.
At Privatenode LLC, we believe our best advocates are the clients we’ve already had the privilege to serve. To show our appreciation, we offer a simple and rewarding referral program for anyone who sends new business our way.
Design Project Referrals
If your referral becomes a web design client (our design projects almost always include hosting):
- $200 cash, or
- $250 in Privatenode design credit
Hosting-Only Referrals
If your referral signs up only for managed hosting:
- $50 cash, or
- $75 in Privatenode design credit
How It Works
- Make the introduction in any format you prefer—email, text message, or group chat all work.
- After you make a referral, please reach out and let us know. This helps us track the referral and ensures you receive your reward.
- We’ll also ask every new client whether they were referred by someone, so nothing slips through the cracks.
- Rewards are issued once the referral signs a project or hosting agreement and the initial payment has been received.
- Payments are issued within 30 days of receiving the client’s initial payment.
Terms
- Rewards cannot be combined. If a referral becomes a design client, the design reward applies—even if hosting is included.
- All referral rewards are one-time payments.
- Cash payouts are made via Venmo (U.S. clients) or Interac e-Transfer (Canadian clients).
- Design credits never expire and can be used for any design or development work. Credits cannot be redeemed for cash, transferred, or applied to hosting fees.
- Referrals must be new contacts who are not already in conversation with Privatenode.
- Self-referrals are not eligible.
- If multiple people refer the same individual or business, the reward is issued to the first person who made the introduction.
- A referral is valid for 90 days from the initial introduction unless a project discussion is actively in progress.
- Privatenode reserves the right to approve or decline referrals at its discretion.
