Success stories
Surfshark partners up with dedicated, creative, and original affiliates. Meet some of them and discover the milestones they have achieved through our partnership!
My name is Tomáš Mahrík. I'm a web and app developer and founder of WebsiteRadar.net.
I've been developing web and mobile applications for over 12 years, and in 2018, I started running a few technology multi-language websites focusing on web tools, web, and cybersecurity.
Since I've been working with technology for a long time, I was aware of Surfshark before our collaboration started. This partnership has brought us another stable source of income for our websites. That said, we were also able to reinvest into new content for our visitors.
Creating quality content is expensive and time-consuming, and the market is extremely competitive. Especially now, when cheap content generated by AI is rising, it's essential to have partners who support content creators so they can continue to create. Surfshark is one of those partners.
I believe that both sides' trust and active cooperation are crucial to a win-win partnership. That said, Surfshark always supports our ideas and gives solid revenue for our content.
Earning.tw is Taiwan's leading financial investment and self-media internet tool. We help everyone take the first step to invest in and use internet tools. Our slogan is "Enjoy the convenience of the internet; equal before money." Currently, we educate on the usage of VPN and financial management perspectives. We do so through simple-to-understand articles, lazy guides, and online/offline company interviews. Surfshark is a well-known, leading VPN brand with a good reputation in Taiwan and worldwide. The decision to partner with Surfshark came naturally, because it aligns with our purpose of selecting long-term partners. Since the start of our partnership, we have seen an increase in conversion sales by 650% within three months. It lets 4,000+ users in Taiwan understand the features and advantages of Surfshark VPN.
Of course, some challenges were inevitable. Most of the content about Surfshark is in English, and we encountered some difficulties in translation. But the problems didn't last, and we achieved great results. As entrepreneurs running a website for over 7 years, we are careful when selecting partners. Our requirements are strict, and we rely on product safety, convenience, and branding. Based on Surfshark and its representatives, it's a rigorous company that values its partners.
