Our Products

Please familiarize yourself with our products. We have had affiliates promote the wrong products in the past and this causes confusion with customers and reduces conversions.

Authority Hacker Pro

This course is designed for people who already have a website and will teach them how to grow their site. It is a modular course (you don’t need to follow it in order) and covers many areas of online marketing, including many advanced topics.

We generally launch Authority Hacker Pro twice per year, once in the spring, once in the fall.

Pricing will be confirmed prior to launch as it is subject to price raises between launch.

Other Courses

Aside from our two flagship courses, we regularly launch smaller more focused training. For example, our Core Web Vitals blueprint which focuses solely on Site Speed.

These blueprints are generally priced lower and usually come with the opportunity to upgrade to Pro during checkout – for which you can earn commissions for.

When we launch new products or blueprints like this, we’ll give you advanced notice as well as information on pricing and promotion.

We’ll email you in advance of all product launches. For each launch, we’ll created a dedicated affiliate page with full launch and promotion details. If you are interested in promoting a specific product, please let us know in advance and we’ll do our best to give you as much warning as possible.

Commissions are approved 30 days after a sale, to take our 30 day refund policy into account. If you set up automatic payments, you will be paid at this point.

To set up automatic payouts, log into Thrivecart and click on any product. At the top you should see it says ‘Paypal:Inactive’. Click this to connect your account. Auto payouts only apply to future payouts after you have set them up. Any past payouts due will be paid out in the next manual payout batch at the start of the next month.

If you did not set up automatic payments in Thrivecart, you will be paid manually at the start of the following calendar month, after approval.

Thrivecart tracks our 30 day refund policy window. It will mark any sale that has not been refunded as due to be paid out 30 days after the sale was made. At this point, anyone with auto-payouts enabled will be paid automatically. Anyone on manual payouts will be paid at the start of the next calendar month (on the first workday). IE:
