NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. – May 20, 2014 – CAKE, the marketing technology SaaS company owned and operated by Accelerize New Media, Inc. (OTCQB: ACLZ), today announced that UK2 Group, a global group of web hosting brands, has selected CAKE’s real-time marketing intelligence solution to track the performance of UK2 Group’s in-house affiliate marketing program, Aff.biz. With CAKE, UK2 Group has been able to transition the management of Aff.biz in-house, as opposed to relying on more costly third-party network providers and less sophisticated systems to track affiliate-referred sales. Within its first 60 days with CAKE, the program has already experienced a 16 percent boost in ROI.

A top-ranking leader in its industry, UK2 Group provides domain name registration and web hosting services to millions of customers worldwide through its family of hosting brands, including UK2.net, Midphase, WestHost, 100TB and VPS.net. CAKE’s feature-rich marketing intelligence platform enables UK2 Group to capture granular, accurate transactional metrics on the performance of Aff.biz, including insight on which web hosting packages sell the best among affiliate-referred visitors.

“CAKE’s marketing intelligence functionalities enabled us to establish new default commission rates that are predicated on net profit margins and customer lifetime value metrics. In essence, we’ve defined business rules that govern the commission rates that affiliates earn based on which web hosting packages are purchased,” said Zac Bitsoi, Affiliate Program Manager with UK2 Group. “Our affiliates are now incentivized to promote higher value web hosting packages, which has substantially enhanced our profitability.”

In March, UK2 Group migrated to using CAKE as its in-house platform for affiliate program tracking and management. UK2 Group has already realized a 16 percent increase in affiliate marketing ROI and expects this number to increase to 20 percent by the end of the year. Previously, UK2 Group was using a combination of another in-house solution and a third-party provider for its program. UK2 Group originally considered moving its entire affiliate program to a third-party provider, however by choosing CAKE, the company eliminates the additional transaction fees that would otherwise be incurred with an external service provider.

“Our operating costs related to affiliate tracking software could have increased by up to 600 percent if we had migrated all of our affiliates to a network-based solution,” added Bitsoi. “Consequently, the decision to migrate to CAKE was unquestionably the right thing to do.”

“CAKE’s SaaS model makes it easy for advertisers to gain immediate and incredibly rich insight into the performance of their affiliate campaigns without giving up control of their program to fee-based, third-party providers,” said Jeff McCollum, CAKE President. “This not only saves money, but also allows for faster and more informed decision making that ultimately improves the overall profitability of marketing efforts.”
