What to do with £2K hosting credit?

[peacock]

I have 2K sitting in a web-hosting company.

Long story short: it's affiliate commission, but they won't pay out as cash.

Any fun / creative ideas on what to do with it?

Reseller hosting? Seems a bit saturated and hassle?

Register domains? And then re-sell them?

You could give it to me if you'd like Buying domains and reselling is possibly the quickest and easiest route. You don't need to worry about long-term support which is part of any professional hosting package. I'd buy quality over quantity and reg 3+ years. Should recover at least your investment if done right, with a possible profit built in if you choose well.

An affiliate that does not pay out cash.

That's strange

Is it a host that no ones ever heard of

Was supposed to be cash but they claimed they couldn't afford it.

We were in a similar situation years ago and ended up hosting Tor downloads for a while until we turned the machines over to a grid project with BOINC. Had a look and cant find the project we were involved in (was genetics based) but there are hundreds out there to choose from now.
