Domain name reseller

The World Wide Web is an ever-expanding network that furnishes new possibilities to gain money on the Internet. One of these options is to become a domain reseller and offer domains to end customers, gaining revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail cost of each domain name. Thousands of domain names are registered each and every day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently active domain names, so this is a growing business niche that you can become involved in.

TLDs and SLDs

A domain name contains two pieces - a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). If we take domain.com, for example, ".com" is the Top-Level Domain and "domain" is the SLD.

gTLDs and ccTLDs

The top-level domain names can be generic or country code. The generic TLDs include the most popular domain extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the country-code top-level domain names include two-character abbreviations that symbolize each country. Instances of country-code TLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each TLD, whether it is a generic TLD or a country-code top-level domain name, has a Registry - an institution that administers the registrations and determines the prerequisites that each particular top-level domain name may contain, such as the length of the registration period or the residency of the registrant. Certain Registrar companies work under the Registry. These are the firms that actually sell the domain name to clients and handle all domain name records.

Earn Cash From Reselling Domains

A lot of Registrars have reseller programs that enable individuals to gain money from offering domain names to end clients. If you sign up for such a program, you can start your own web business. Generally, a domain name will be more inexpensive if it is registered through a reseller rather than if it is obtained directly from the Registrar by an end client. The cause is that resellers can reach more people in regional districts or states where the Registrar may not be known whatsoever. This implies more sales for the Registrar, so both parties will capitalize on that. Your profit will be the difference between the price that the client pays and the one that the Registrar requires for the domain name registration.

Offer Domains On Behalf Of Your Very Own Personal Trademark Name

When you sign up for a domain name reseller program, you will acquire a web page hosting CP where you can settle the prices for the separate TLDs that the Registrar provides. Most companies also provide invoice transaction software and web site layouts for your online storefront, and the automation of the entire procedure coupled with the swelling demand for domains render the domain name reseller business so seductive. You will either get a pre-built web site and use the Registrar system to resell domain names, or they will offer you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can set up your own personal site and order form. Commonly, you have the option to pick between the two possibilities, so it all depends on how trained you are in these affairs. As a domain reseller, you will operate on behalf of your personal trademark name and not on behalf of the Registrar's.

Gain Cash From Trading Site Hosting Services Too

A sensible supplement to your domain name reseller business would be to sell web hosting packages too. Thus, you can offer a package deal to people who want to develop their web site and need both a domain name and a web space hosting package. Particular corporations provide such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can order a VPS or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain name reseller account and free-of-cost billing transaction software to charge your customers. You can then sell domain names and shared web hosting plans to customers, and since they provide a lot of different domain extensions, you will be able to provide domain and hosting services to users from all around the globe.
