Domain name reseller

The Internet is an ever-developing community that delivers new options to make cash online. One of these possibilities is to be a domain reseller and offer domains to end customers, generating profit from the difference between the wholesale and the retail cost of each domain name. 1000's of domain names are registered each day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently functioning domain names, so this is an increasing business niche that you can become a part of.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

A domain contains two components - a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). If we pick domain.com, for example, ".com" is the top-level domain name and "domain" is the second-level domain name.

Generic and Country-Code Top-Level Domain Names

The TLDs can be generic or country code. The generic Top-Level Domains include the best known domain name extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the country-code TLDs consist of two-letter abbreviations that correspond to each country. Examples of country-code top-level domain names are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each TLD, whether it is a generic Top-Level Domain or a ccTLD, has a Registry - an organization that handles the registrations and determines the preconditions that each particular top-level domain name may have, among them the length of the registration period or the residency of the registrant. A number of Registrar corporations work under the Registry. These are the companies that actually offer the domain name to customers and administer all domain name resource records.

Make Revenue From Reselling Domain Names

Plenty of Registrars have reseller programs that enable people to earn money from offering domain names to end users. If you sign up for such a program, you can begin your very own personal web business. Generally, a domain will be more inexpensive if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is purchased directly from the Registrar by an end client. The cause is that resellers can reach more individuals in local regions or countries where the Registrar may not be popular whatsoever. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both parties will cash in on that. Your profit will be the difference between the price that the customer pays and the one that the Registrar levies for the domain name registration.

Resell Domain Names Under Your Personal Brand Name

When you subscribe to a domain reseller program, you will have a web space hosting CP where you can set the prices for the individual TLDs that the Registrar provides. Most firms also provide invoicing transaction software and website skins for your virtual shop, and the automation of the entire procedure coupled with the high demand for domain names render the domain name reseller business so seductive. You will either obtain a pre-built site and make use of the Registrar platform to sell domain names, or they will give you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can create your own website and form for placing orders. Commonly, you have the option to select between the 2 options, so it all revolves around how accomplished you are in these things. As a domain name reseller, you will work under your very own personal brand and not on behalf of the Registrar's brand.

Earn Profit From Supplying Website Hosting Plans Too

A good addition to your domain name reseller business would be to sell web hosting accounts as well. Thus, you can offer a package deal to people who desire to manage their web portal and require both a domain and a site hosting account. Given firms provide such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can buy a Virtual Private Server or a dedicated server, and they will also give you a domain reseller account and charge-free invoicing software to charge your customers. You can then offer Top-Level Domains and shared website hosting packages to clients, and since they provide lots of diverse domain extensions, you will be able to provide domain and hosting services to customers from all around the globe.
