Domain reseller

The Internet is an ever-increasing network that furnishes new ways to make cash online. One of these possibilities is to become a domain reseller and offer domains to end customers, making revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail cost of each and every domain name. Thousands of domains are registered every day, and there are 1 000 000's of presently active domains, so this is an increasing business niche that you can become a part of.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

A domain includes two constituents - a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). If we take domain.com, for example, ".com" is the top-level domain name and "domain" is the Second-Level Domain.

Generic and Country-Code TLDs

The top-level domain names can be generic or country code. The generic Top-Level Domains include the most widespread domain name extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, while the country-code top-level domain names include 2-letter abbreviations that represent each country. Examples of country-code TLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each top-level domain name, whether it is a generic or a ccTLD, has a Registry - an institution that handles the registrations and sets the preconditions that each given Top-Level Domain may entail, like the length of the registration term or the citizenship of the registrant. Certain Registrar companies work under the Registry. These are the companies that in fact sell the domain name to customers and administer all DNS records.

Gain Cash From Selling Domain Names

Plenty of Registrars have reseller programs that enable people to make cash from selling domains to end users. If you register with such a program, you can set up your own online business. Regularly, a domain will be more inexpensive if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is purchased straight from the Registrar by an end user. The explanation is that resellers can reach more individuals in local communities or states where the Registrar may not be known whatsoever. This implies more sales for the Registrar, so both parties will capitalize on that. Your revenue will be the difference between the price that the customer pays and the one that the Registrar imposes for the domain registration.

Trade Domain Names Under Your Very Own Trademark Name

When you register with a domain reseller program, you will acquire a hosting Control Panel where you can fix the prices for the specific TLDs that the Registrar provides. Most companies also provide billing management software and themes for your online store, and the automation of the whole process combined with the immense demand for domain names render the domain reseller business niche so alluring. You will either get a pre-made website and utilize the Registrar system to sell domains, or they will offer you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can set up your own web portal and order form. Normally, you have the option to choose between the two options, so it all revolves around how experienced you are in these issues. As a domain name reseller, you will sell under your own personal trademark name and not on behalf of the Registrar's brand.

Gain Money From Trading Web Space Hosting Services As Well

An appropriate addition to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting accounts as well. In this way, you can give a package deal to people who want to set up their web page and need both a domain name and a website hosting plan. Some corporations have such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can run a Virtual Dedicated Server or a dedicated server, and they will also give you a domain reseller account and free invoicing transaction software to charge your customers. You can then sell top-level domain names and shared website hosting plans to clients, and since they offer plenty of diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to provide domain and hosting services to clients from all over the world.
