Domain reseller

The World Wide Web is an ever-flourishing network that provides new possibilities to make money on the Internet. One of these possibilities is to be a domain name reseller and sell domain names to end customers, making revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail cost of each and every domain name. 1000's of domain names are registered each day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently functioning domain names, so this is a flowering marketing niche that you can be involved in.

TLDs and SLDs

A domain is made of 2 constituents - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). If we pick domain.com, for instance, ".com" is the top-level domain name and "domain" is the Second-Level Domain.

Generic and Country-Code TLDs

The Top-Level Domains can be generic or country code. The generic Top-Level Domains include the most widespread domain extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, while the country-code top-level domain names comprise 2-letter abbreviations that signify each country. Examples of country-code TLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each TLD, whether it is a generic top-level domain name or a country-code TLD, has a Registry - an organization that is responsible for the registrations and sets the prerequisites that each given TLD may contain, such as the length of the registration term or the residency of the registrant. Certain Registrar firms operate under the Registry. These are the corporations that actually offer the domain name to customers and handle all domain name records.

Gain Profit From Reselling Domain Names

A lot of Registrars have reseller programs that allow individuals to gain money from selling domain names to end users. If you subscribe to such a program, you can set up your very own personal Internet business. Normally, a domain will be more inexpensive 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 reach more people in regional communities or countries where the Registrar may not be popular whatsoever. This means 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 user pays and the one that the Registrar imposes for the domain name registration.

Sell Domains Under Your Very Own Brand

When you register with a domain reseller program, you will get a webspace hosting Control Panel where you can choose the prices for the different Top-Level Domains that the Registrar offers. Most firms also provide billing transaction software and design skins for your virtual storefront, and the automation of the entire process combined with the growing demand for domains make the domain name reseller market so alluring. You will either acquire a turn-key site and make use of the Registrar system to resell domain names, or they will give you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can make your very own online portal and order form. Traditionally, you have the opportunity to pick between the 2 alternatives, so it all revolves around how trained you are in these issues. As a domain name reseller, you will sell on behalf of your own personal trademark name and not under the Registrar's brand.

Gain Profit From Promoting Hosting Services Too

A nice supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting packages as well. Thus, you can offer a package deal to clients who want to manage their web site and need both a domain name and a website hosting package. Given corporations supply such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can have a VPS or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain name reseller account and free billing transaction software to bill your clients. You can then sell domains and shared web hosting plans to clients, and since they offer many different domain name extensions, you will be able to provide domain name and hosting services to persons from all over the globe.
