Domain name reseller

The World Wide Web is an ever-expanding platform that generates new options to make cash on the Internet. One of these ways is to become a domain reseller and sell domain names to end users, earning profit from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each and every domain name. 1000's of domains are registered each day, and there are millions of currently active domains, so this is a flowering business niche that you can be involved in.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

A domain name consists of 2 constituents - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (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 TLDs include the most conventional domain extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, while the country-code TLDs comprise 2-letter abbreviations that correspond to each country. Instances of country-code TLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each top-level domain name, whether it is a gTLD or a country-code Top-Level Domain, has a Registry - an institution that administers the registrations and sets the prerequisites that each specific Top-Level Domain may contain, including the duration of the registration term or the citizenship of the registrant. Certain Registrar corporations operate under the Registry. These are the corporations that in fact sell the domain name to customers and manage all domain name records.

Earn Revenue From Trading Domains

Multiple Registrars have reseller programs that enable individuals to earn money from offering domain names to end users. If you subscribe to such a program, you can kick off your very own Internet business. Commonly, a domain will cost less if it is registered through a reseller rather than if it is purchased straight from the Registrar by an end client. The cause is that resellers can contact more users in areas or states where the Registrar may not be known whatsoever. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both sides will make a profit from that. Your profit will be the difference between the price that the client pays and the one that the Registrar imposes for the domain registration.

Resell Domain Names On Behalf Of Your Very Own Brand

When you register with a domain reseller program, you will acquire a hosting Control Panel where you can fix the prices for the separate Top-Level Domains that the Registrar offers. Most companies also offer invoice management software and web design templates for your online storefront, and the automation of the whole process combined with the significant demand for domain names make the domain name reseller business niche so seductive. You will either get a pre-developed web site and make use of the Registrar platform to sell domains, or they will offer you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can build your very own website and order form. Typically, you have the opportunity to decide between the 2 options, so it all revolves around how practiced you are in these issues. As a domain reseller, you will work under your own personal brand name and not under the Registrar's brand.

Earn Money From Offering Hosting Services As Well

An appropriate supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting services as well. Thus, you can give a package deal to users who desire to have their web portal and need both a domain name and a site hosting account. Particular corporations offer such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can order a VPS or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain name reseller account and cost-free billing software to charge your clients. You can then sell Top-Level Domains and shared hosting packages to clients, and since they offer lots of diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to offer domain name and hosting services to people from all around the globe.
