Domain name reseller

The World Wide Web is an ever-increasing system that delivers new ways to make cash on the Internet. One of them is to become a domain name reseller and sell domain names to end users, gaining revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail cost of each domain name. 1000's of domain names are registered each day, and there are millions of currently functioning domain names, so this is a flowering marketing niche that you can become engaged in.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

A domain consists of two components - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). If we take domain.com, for example, ".com" is the TLD and "domain" is the Second-Level Domain.

Generic and Country-Code Top-Level Domain Names

The Top-Level Domains can be generic or country code. The generic Top-Level Domains include the best known domain name extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the country-code Top-Level Domains are made of two-letter abbreviations that denote each country. Examples of country-code TLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each Top-Level Domain, whether it is a generic Top-Level Domain or a country-code TLD, has a Registry - an institution that handles the registrations and determines the preconditions that each given top-level domain name may impose, such as the length of the registration term or the residency of the registrant. A number of Registrar corporations operate under the Registry. These are the firms that actually offer the domain name to clients and handle all DNS resource records.

Earn Money From Selling Domain Names

Numerous Registrars have reseller programs that permit people to gain profit from offering domains to end clients. If you subscribe to such a program, you can establish your very own Internet business. Regularly, a domain name will be cheaper if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is bought straight from the Registrar by an end customer. The cause is that resellers can contact more individuals in regional communities or states where the Registrar may not be popular whatsoever. This implies more sales for the Registrar, so both parties will earn a profit from that. Your profit will be the difference between the price that the user pays and the one that the Registrar charges for the domain name registration.

Trade Top-Level Domain Names Under Your Personal Trademark Name

When you sign up for a domain name reseller program, you will acquire a CP where you can fix the prices for the individual TLDs that the Registrar provides. Most firms also provide invoice management software and web site layouts for your web storefront, and the automation of the entire process coupled with the large demand for domain names make the domain reseller industry so desirable. You will either acquire a ready-to-use web site and make use of the Registrar system to sell domains, or they will give you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can build your very own web site and order form. Commonly, you have the option to pick between the 2 possibilities, so it all revolves around how practiced you are in these matters. As a domain name reseller, you will operate under your personal brand and not under the Registrar's brand.

Earn Money From Trading Hosting Solutions As Well

An appropriate supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting solutions too. Thereby, you can offer a package deal to users who wish to make their web page and need both a domain and a hosting plan. Certain companies furnish such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can run a Virtual Dedicated Server or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain name reseller account and free-of-cost invoicing software to charge your clients. You can then offer Top-Level Domains and shared website hosting accounts to clients, and since they provide lots of different domain name extensions, you will be able to offer domain and hosting services to persons from all around the globe.
