Domain name reseller

The Internet is an ever-developing network that provides new ways to make cash on the Internet. One of them is to be a domain name reseller and sell domains to end users, earning profit from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each and every domain name. Thousands of domain names are registered each and every day, and there are 1 000 000's of presently functioning domain names, so this is a growing trading niche that you can be a part of.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

A domain is composed of 2 entities - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). If we pick domain.com, for instance, ".com" is the top-level domain name and "domain" is the second-level domain name.

Generic and Country-Code Top-Level Domains

The top-level domain names can be generic or country code. The gTLDs include the most widespread domain name extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, while the country-code top-level domain names include 2-character abbreviations that represent each country. Examples of country-code Top-Level Domains are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each top-level domain name, whether it is a generic or a country-code one, has a Registry - an institution that deals with the registrations and determines the preconditions that each concrete Top-Level Domain may include, like the length of the registration period or the citizenship of the registrant. Certain Registrar companies work under the Registry. These are the corporations that actually offer the domain name to clients and administer all domain records.

Earn Cash From Selling Domains

Multiple Registrars have reseller programs that enable individuals to earn money from offering domain names to end users. If you subscribe to such a program, you can kick off your own personal Internet business. Regularly, a domain will be more inexpensive if it is registered through a reseller rather than if it is purchased directly from the Registrar by an end customer. 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 make a profit from that. Your revenue will be the difference between the price that the client pays and the one that the Registrar imposes for the domain name registration.

Resell Top-Level Domain Names On Behalf Of Your Personal Brand

When you sign up for a domain name reseller program, you will have a web hosting Control Panel where you can choose the prices for the various top-level domain names that the Registrar offers. Most corporations also provide billing software and design templates for your online shop, and the automation of the entire process coupled with the swelling demand for domains make the domain name reseller market so desirable. You will either receive a pre-developed website and utilize the Registrar system to resell domain names, or they will give you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can create your very own personal site and order form. Commonly, you have the option to select between the two alternatives, so it all depends on how skillful you are in these matters. As a domain name reseller, you will work on behalf of your own brand and not under the Registrar's brand.

Gain Money From Trading Web Hosting Plans Too

A logical supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting accounts too. In this way, you can give a package deal to customers who wish to launch their web page and demand both a domain and a site hosting package. Certain corporations supply such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can order a Virtual Dedicated Server or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain name reseller account and free-of-charge invoice transaction software to charge your customers. You can then sell domains and shared website hosting plans to customers, and since they offer plenty of diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to provide domain and hosting services to people from all over the world.
