Domain name reseller

The Internet is an ever-increasing system that supplies new options to earn cash on the Web. One of them is to become a domain name reseller and sell domains to end users, generating revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each and every domain name. 1000's of domain names are registered each day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently active domain names, so this is an enlarging business niche that you can be a part of.

TLDs and SLDs

A domain name consists of two parts - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). If we take domain.com, for example, ".com" is the Top-Level Domain and "domain" is the second-level domain name.

Generic and Country-Code TLDs

The TLDs can be generic or country code. The gTLDs comprise the most widely used domain extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the country-code TLDs consist of 2-letter abbreviations that signify each country. Instances of ccTLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each TLD, whether it is a gTLD or a country-code Top-Level Domain, has a Registry - an organization that tackles the registrations and determines the preconditions that each specific TLD may have, including the length of the registration period or the citizenship of the registrant. Certain Registrar companies work under the Registry. These are the corporations that in fact offer the domain name to customers and administer all domain name records.

Make Profit From Selling Domain Names

Numerous Registrars have reseller programs that permit people to make revenue from selling domain names to end clients. If you register with such a program, you can build your own personal electronic business. Commonly, a domain name will be more inexpensive if it is registered through a reseller rather than if it is obtained straight from the Registrar by an end customer. The explanation is that resellers can reach more people in local districts or countries where the Registrar may not be famous at all. This implies more sales for the Registrar, so both parties will take advantage of that. Your revenue will be the difference between the price that the client pays and the one that the Registrar charges for the domain name registration.

Trade Top-Level Domains On Behalf Of Your Personal Brand Name

When you sign up for a domain reseller program, you will acquire a web page hosting Control Panel where you can determine the prices for the various top-level domain names that the Registrar provides. Most firms also provide invoice transaction software and web design layouts for your web store, and the automation of the entire process coupled with the towering demand for domain names render the domain reseller business so attractive. You will either acquire a ready-for-use website and use the Registrar platform to resell domains, or they will offer you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can build your very own personal online portal and form for placing orders. Typically, you have the opportunity to pick between the two alternatives, so it all revolves around how skillful you are in these affairs. As a domain name reseller, you will do business under your very own personal brand name and not under the Registrar's brand.

Earn Money From Promoting Hosting Plans As Well

A reasonable supplement to your domain name reseller business would be to sell web hosting plans as well. Thereby, you can offer a package deal to customers who desire to manage their site and need both a domain name and a site hosting account. A number of corporations supply such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can order a Virtual Server or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain name reseller account and cost-free invoice software to bill your clients. You can then offer Top-Level Domains and shared web hosting packages to clients, and since they offer many diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to offer domain name and hosting services to persons from all over the globe.
