Multiple programs publish attribution windows of 60 days or longer, which can matter when the buying cycle includes research across several sessions.
Know what changes the decision.
Managed WordPress hosting has higher switching cost and usually a longer evaluation cycle than entry hosting. Compare who the service is built for, what migration changes, and how the affiliate event is validated before focusing on the payout.
Migration and support
Migration assistance, staging, support scope and operational tooling can matter more than small headline price differences.
Commercial model
Separate one-time bounties from any recurring component and verify whether different plans generate different payouts.
Decision cycle
Longer consideration makes cookie duration, attribution replacement and sales validation especially important.

Is managed hosting solving a real operational problem for the reader?
If the reader mainly needs the cheapest place to launch a simple site, a managed platform may be the wrong comparison set even if its affiliate payout is higher.
What changes during migration?
Domain, DNS, email, caching, staging and plugin workflow can all affect the move. Keep the recommendation tied to the reader’s actual migration burden.
Is the commission one-time or partly recurring?
Do not group hosting bounties and recurring revenue share as if they were equivalent. State the qualifying plan and duration explicitly.
Open the closest head-to-head matchups.
