Domain reseller

The Internet is an ever-enlarging system that furnishes new opportunities to earn money on the Web. One of these options is to be a domain reseller and offer domain names to end clients, generating revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each and every domain name. Thousands of domains are registered each and every day, and there are millions of presently active domains, so this is a developing business niche that you can be involved in.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

A domain involves 2 pieces - a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). If we take domain.com, for example, ".com" is the TLD and "domain" is the second-level domain name.

Generic and Country-Code TLDs

The TLDs can be generic or country code. The gTLDs include the most widely used domain name extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, while the country-code Top-Level Domains involve two-letter abbreviations that correspond to each country. Examples of country-code Top-Level Domains are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each Top-Level Domain, whether it is a generic Top-Level Domain or a ccTLD, has a Registry - an institution that tackles the registrations and determines the requirements that each concrete TLD may impose, including the duration of the registration period or the citizenship of the registrant. Certain Registrar firms operate under the Registry. These are the corporations that in fact offer the domain name to clients and administer all DNS records.

Earn Profit From Offering Domain Names

Numerous Registrars have reseller programs that enable people to earn money from offering domain names to end users. If you register with such a program, you can commence your own web business. Normally, a domain will cost less if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is purchased straight from the Registrar by an end customer. The explanation is that resellers can contact more persons in regions or states where the Registrar may not be famous whatsoever. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both sides will profit from that. Your profit will be the difference between the price that the customer pays and the one that the Registrar charges for the domain registration.

Sell Domain Names Under Your Very Own Personal Brand

When you subscribe to a domain name reseller program, you will obtain a web space hosting Control Panel where you can select the prices for the different TLDs that the Registrar offers. Most corporations also offer invoice management software and web themes for your virtual storefront, and the automation of the whole process together with the immense demand for domain names render the domain name reseller market niche so alluring. You will either get a ready-made web site and make use of the Registrar platform to resell domains, or they will grant you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can create your very own web page and form for placing orders. Traditionally, you have the option to decide between the two alternatives, so it all revolves around how skillful you are in these affairs. As a domain reseller, you will work under your own personal trademark name and not on behalf of the Registrar's.

Make Cash From Selling Webspace Hosting Services Too

A sensible addition to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting packages too. In this way, you can give a package deal to individuals who wish to establish their online portal and require both a domain name and a website hosting plan. A number of corporations provide such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can have a Virtual Server or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain reseller account and free-of-cost invoice software to bill your customers. You can then sell domain names and shared hosting packages to customers, and since they offer a lot of diverse domain extensions, you will be able to provide domain and hosting services to customers from all around the world.
