With my project now crossing the $1000 mark just 2 weeks after launch, I wanted to create an affiliate program to help spread the word more and share revenue with my community. If you have an audience, you can now earn 30% of each $14.99 sale (~$5 USD) that you refer to How to Convert.

Your support has been nothing short of amazing. My life is changed after a single reddit post and posts like this to this community. This experience has taught me a powerful lesson: make something useful, not revolutionary.
How to Convert is a universal file converter that does conversions locally on your device. There are plenty of file conversion sites, but when you use them, you’re sending your files and data to their servers. I didn’t like that and I wanted to use local tools but with a drag and drop app, so non-programmers could use it.
This program is a way for me to say thanks and hopefully get the word out there more without needing to run Ads.
How it works:
Sign Up: Visit the Affiliate Dashboard and join the program.
Share Your Link: Once approved, you’ll receive a unique referral link.
Earn Commission: Every time someone makes a purchase using your link, you pocket 30% of the sale with a 30-day cookie policy.
I’m incredibly grateful for your ongoing support and can’t wait to see this community help each other grow. If you have any questions or need help getting started, feel free to drop a comment below.
Thanks for being part of this journey and let me know if you have any tips or recommendations.
This is awesome news! Congratulations on hitting the $1000 milestone so quickly – that's a testament to the usefulness of "How to Convert." The fact that it prioritizes local processing is a huge selling point for privacy-conscious users.
Congrats on hitting such an amazing milestone so quickly! 🎉 The affiliate program sounds like a great way to reward the community while spreading the word. For those considering joining, what strategies do you find work best for sharing referral links effectively? Let’s help each other maximize earnings!
thank you! I find writing affiliate style blogs, best of videos and emailing/tweeting to your following. Most of all, telling people how you find the app useful in your experience
@jakemanger I wish you success. But I couldn't understand the software background that runs locally? It looks like a js html app running in the browser. What is the logic of working locally? What dependencies are required to convert so many files?
Thanks. Instead of Googling "Convert HEIC to JPG", clicking on the first link you see and then sending your files to some random server, it's an app that you download and run locally. That way, your private files stay on your device.
You can also convert in the browser using the free demo. That runs on the client side (your own machine) but only a limited number of files can be converted with the demo, because local tools are needed to do the others.
