Domain reseller

The World Wide Web is an ever-increasing system that supplies new options to make money on the Internet. One of these possibilities is to become a domain reseller and offer domain names to end clients, gaining profit from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each domain name. Thousands of domains are registered each and every day, and there are millions of presently active domain names, so this is an increasing trading niche that you can be engaged in.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

A domain contains 2 components - 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 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 TLDs comprise the most widely used domain extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the country-code TLDs include two-letter abbreviations that denote each country. Instances of country-code Top-Level Domains are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each TLD, whether it is a generic TLD or a country-code one, has a Registry - an organization that administers the registrations and sets the prerequisites that each given TLD may have, such as the length of the registration period or the residency of the registrant. Certain Registrar companies operate under the Registry. These are the firms that actually offer the domain name to clients and handle all domain resource records.

Gain Cash From Reselling Domain Names

Lots of Registrars have reseller programs that permit individuals to earn money from selling domain names to end clients. If you subscribe to such a program, you can begin your very own Internet business. Generally, a domain name will be cheaper if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is obtained straight from the Registrar by an end customer. The cause is that resellers can contact more people in regional districts or states where the Registrar may not be famous at all. 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 user pays and the one that the Registrar charges for the domain name registration.

Trade TLDs On Behalf Of Your Own Personal Brand

When you register with a domain reseller program, you will have a web site hosting Control Panel where you can determine the prices for the different top-level domain names that the Registrar offers. Most corporations also offer invoicing software and web design templates for your online shop, and the automation of the entire process together with the large demand for domains make the domain reseller business so seductive. You will either obtain a ready-made site and avail of the Registrar system to sell domain names, or they will grant you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can create your own personal online portal and form for placing orders. Normally, you have the option to choose between the 2 possibilities, so it all revolves around how proficient you are in these issues. As a domain reseller, you will work under your own trademark name and not under the Registrar's brand.

Make Money From Selling Hosting Packages As Well

A proper supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting packages too. In this way, you can offer a package deal to users who wish to develop their web page and demand both a domain and a site hosting plan. Certain firms provide such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can purchase a VPS or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain reseller account and free-of-charge billing transaction software to bill your clients. You can then offer domains and shared hosting plans to clients, and since they provide lots of diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to offer domain and hosting services to customers from all over the world.
