Domain name reseller

The World Wide Web is an ever-flourishing network that furnishes new options to earn money on the Web. One of these possibilities is to be a domain name reseller and offer domain names to end users, making profit from the difference between the wholesale and the retail cost of each and every domain name. 1000's of domains are registered each and every day, and there are millions of currently functioning domains, so this is a flourishing trading niche that you can become a part of.

TLDs and SLDs

A domain involves two parts - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). If we pick domain.com, for instance, ".com" is the Top-Level Domain and "domain" is the SLD.

Generic and Country-Code Top-Level Domains

The top-level domain names can be generic or country code. The generic Top-Level Domains include the most famous domain extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, while the country-code TLDs are composed of two-character abbreviations that symbolize 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 name, has a Registry - an institution that deals with the registrations and sets the requirements that each concrete top-level domain name may include, among them the length of the registration period or the residency of the registrant. A number of Registrar corporations operate under the Registry. These are the companies that in fact sell the domain name to clients and administer all domain name records.

Make Cash From Reselling Domain Names

Numerous Registrars have reseller programs that enable people to gain profit from offering domains to end customers. If you subscribe to such a program, you can kick off your own personal electronic business. Typically, a domain name will cost less if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is obtained directly from the Registrar by an end client. The explanation is that resellers can contact more persons in areas or states where the Registrar may not be popular whatsoever. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both sides will benefit from that. Your revenue will be the difference between the price that the user pays and the one that the Registrar requires for the domain registration.

Offer Top-Level Domain Names On Behalf Of Your Own Personal Trademark Name

When you register with a domain reseller program, you will obtain a web space hosting CP where you can determine the prices for the separate TLDs that the Registrar offers. Most companies also offer billing software and website layouts for your online store, and the automation of the whole process together with the vast demand for domain names render the domain name reseller industry so attractive. You will either obtain a ready-for-use website and make use of the Registrar platform to resell domains, or they will grant you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can make your very own personal site and form for placing orders. Traditionally, you have the option to select between the 2 possibilities, so it all depends on how expert you are in these affairs. As a domain reseller, you will sell under your personal brand and not on behalf of the Registrar's brand.

Make Revenue From Trading Web Page Hosting Packages As Well

An appropriate supplement to your domain name reseller business would be to sell web hosting plans as well. Thus, you can offer a package deal to individuals who desire to make their web site and demand both a domain and a web site hosting account. Certain companies provide such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can have a VPS or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain reseller account and charge-free invoice software to charge your customers. You can then sell Top-Level Domains and shared web hosting accounts to customers, and since they provide a lot of different domain name extensions, you will be able to offer domain and hosting services to customers from all around the globe.
