Domain name reseller

The Internet is an ever-increasing community that furnishes new ways to make money on the Internet. One of these opportunities is to become a domain reseller and offer domain names to end customers, making revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail cost of each domain name. Thousands of domains are registered every day, and there are 1 000 000's of presently active domains, so this is a blossoming marketing niche that you can become involved in.

TLDs and SLDs

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

gTLDs and ccTLDs

The Top-Level Domains can be generic or country code. The generic top-level domain names comprise the most famous domain extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, while the country-code Top-Level Domains include two-letter abbreviations that denote each country. Instances of ccTLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each Top-Level Domain, whether it is a gTLD or a country-code Top-Level Domain, has a Registry - an organization that tackles the registrations and sets the requirements that each specific top-level domain name may impose, such as the duration of the registration term or the citizenship of the registrant. Certain Registrar firms work under the Registry. These are the corporations that in fact offer the domain name to clients and administer all domain name resource records.

Make Profit From Trading Domains

Lots of Registrars have reseller programs that permit people to earn profit from offering domains to end users. If you subscribe to such a program, you can commence your own web business. As a rule, a domain name will cost less if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is purchased directly from the Registrar by an end customer. The explanation is that resellers can reach more persons in provinces or states where the Registrar may not be known at all. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both sides will earn a profit from that. Your profit will be the difference between the price that the customer pays and the one that the Registrar imposes for the domain name registration.

Sell Domain Names Under Your Own Brand Name

When you register with a domain name reseller program, you will receive a hosting Control Panel where you can determine the prices for the various Top-Level Domains that the Registrar provides. Most firms also provide billing management software and website layouts for your virtual storefront, and the automation of the whole procedure coupled with the significant demand for domain names make the domain name reseller industry so desirable. You will either acquire a ready-for-use web site and make use of the Registrar system to sell domains, or they will grant you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can build your own personal website and form for placing orders. Usually, you have the opportunity to pick between the 2 options, so it all revolves around how experienced you are in these issues. As a domain reseller, you will do business under your own trademark name and not on behalf of the Registrar's.

Earn Cash From Trading Webspace Hosting Solutions As Well

A reasonable supplement to your domain name reseller business would be to sell web hosting packages too. Thus, you can give a package deal to persons who desire to develop their online portal and require both a domain name and a web page hosting plan. Certain companies have such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can purchase a Virtual Private Server or a dedicated server, and they will also give you a domain name reseller account and free-of-charge invoice transaction software to bill your clients. You can then sell Top-Level Domains and shared hosting plans to customers, and since they provide plenty of diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to provide domain and hosting services to persons from all over the world.
