Domain reseller

The Internet is an ever-developing platform that furnishes new options to make cash on the Web. One of them is to be a domain reseller and offer domains to end customers, making profit from the difference between the wholesale and the retail cost of each and every domain name. Thousands of domain names are registered every day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently functioning domain names, so this is an enlarging business niche that you can be engaged in.

TLDs and SLDs

A domain name contains two constituents - 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 SLD.

Generic and Country-Code TLDs

The TLDs can be generic or country code. The generic top-level domain names include the most popular domain name extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the country-code Top-Level Domains include two-character abbreviations that correspond to 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 Top-Level Domain, has a Registry - an institution that tackles the registrations and determines the requirements that each particular Top-Level Domain may include, among them the duration of the registration period or the residency of the registrant. Certain Registrar companies operate under the Registry. These are the corporations that actually sell the domain name to customers and handle all domain records.

Gain Profit From Selling Domain Names

Plenty of Registrars have reseller programs that permit people to make cash from offering domain names to end users. If you subscribe to such a program, you can commence your very own online business. Typically, a domain will be more inexpensive if it is registered through a reseller rather than if it is obtained directly from the Registrar by an end customer. The explanation is that resellers can contact more customers in areas or countries where the Registrar may not be popular whatsoever. This implies more sales for the Registrar, so both sides 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 requires for the domain name registration.

Resell Domain Names On Behalf Of Your Personal Brand

When you register with a domain name reseller program, you will get a website hosting Control Panel where you can determine the prices for the specific top-level domain names that the Registrar provides. Most corporations also offer invoice management software and design themes for your web store, and the automation of the entire procedure coupled with the rising demand for domains make the domain reseller market so desirable. You will either get a pre-developed site and make use of the Registrar system to resell domains, or they will give you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can make your own web site and order form. Commonly, you have the option to choose between the two alternatives, so it all depends on how practiced you are in these matters. As a domain reseller, you will operate under your very own brand and not on behalf of the Registrar's brand.

Earn Profit From Trading Web Page Hosting Services As Well

A suitable supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting accounts as well. In this way, you can offer a package deal to users who want to launch their online portal and require both a domain name and a web hosting account. A few companies furnish such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can have a Virtual Dedicated Server or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain reseller account and free-of-charge billing management software to charge your clients. You can then offer top-level domain names and shared web hosting plans to customers, and since they offer lots of diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to provide domain name and hosting services to individuals from all around the world.
