Domain name reseller

The Internet is an ever-growing platform that delivers new ways to earn money on the Web. One of these options is to be a domain name reseller and sell domains to end users, making revenue 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 1 000 000's of currently active domain names, so this is an increasing business niche that you can become involved in.

TLDs and SLDs

A domain name contains 2 parts - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). If we pick domain.com, for instance, ".com" is the TLD and "domain" is the SLD.

gTLDs and ccTLDs

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, whereas the country-code TLDs comprise 2-character abbreviations that correspond to each country. Instances 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 ccTLD, has a Registry - an organization that deals with the registrations and determines the preconditions that each specific Top-Level Domain may have, like the length of the registration period or the residency of the registrant. Certain Registrar firms operate under the Registry. These are the companies that in fact offer the domain name to clients and administer all domain name resource records.

Make Cash From Offering Domains

Many Registrars have reseller programs that enable people to make revenue from offering domains to end clients. If you register with such a program, you can initiate your very own web business. Commonly, a domain will be cheaper if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is bought directly from the Registrar by an end client. The cause is that resellers can reach more persons in regional districts or countries where the Registrar may not be famous at all. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both parties will capitalize on 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 Top-Level Domain Names Under Your Own Trademark Name

When you register with a domain name reseller program, you will get a web page hosting Control Panel where you can choose the prices for the specific top-level domain names that the Registrar provides. Most companies also offer invoicing software and website templates for your virtual store, and the automation of the entire procedure coupled with the flourishing demand for domain names render the domain name reseller business so attractive. You will either obtain a pre-built website and utilize the Registrar system to sell domain names, or they will grant you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can build your own personal website and order form. Typically, you have the opportunity to decide between the 2 possibilities, so it all depends on how practiced you are in these matters. As a domain name reseller, you will sell on behalf of your very own personal brand and not under the Registrar's brand.

Make Cash From Supplying Hosting Solutions Too

A reasonable addition to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting accounts too. In this way, you can offer a package deal to users who would like to have their website and need both a domain and a web site hosting package. Given corporations furnish such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can purchase a Virtual Private Server or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain name reseller account and free-of-cost invoicing transaction software to charge your clients. You can then offer TLDs and shared web hosting plans to clients, and since they offer plenty of different domain name extensions, you will be able to provide domain and hosting services to customers from all over the world.
