Domain name reseller

The World Wide Web is an ever-enlarging system that provides new opportunities to earn money on the Internet. One of these possibilities is to become a domain name reseller and sell domains to end customers, earning revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail cost of each and every domain name. Thousands of domain names are registered each day, and there are millions of currently active domains, so this is an enlarging trading niche that you can become a part of.

TLDs and SLDs

A domain involves 2 pieces - 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 name.

Generic and Country-Code Top-Level Domain Names

The top-level domain names can be generic or country code. The generic top-level domain names include the most famous domain name extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the country-code Top-Level Domains involve two-letter abbreviations that stand for each country. Examples of country-code TLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each TLD, whether it is a gTLD or a country-code one, has a Registry - an institution that administers the registrations and sets the requirements that each specific TLD may involve, like the duration of the registration period or the residency of the registrant. A number of Registrar firms operate under the Registry. These are the companies that in fact offer the domain name to customers and administer all domain resource records.

Earn Revenue From Selling Domains

Many Registrars have reseller programs that permit individuals to earn money from selling domain names to end users. If you sign up for such a program, you can begin your very own Internet business. Commonly, a domain will be cheaper if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is obtained directly from the Registrar by an end client. The cause is that resellers can reach more customers in provinces or countries where the Registrar may not be known whatsoever. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both parties 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 levies for the domain name registration.

Offer Top-Level Domains On Behalf Of Your Very Own Personal Trademark Name

When you subscribe to a domain name reseller program, you will acquire a CP where you can choose the prices for the specific TLDs that the Registrar offers. Most corporations also provide invoice management software and layouts for your virtual shop, and the automation of the entire process together with the rising demand for domain names render the domain reseller industry so desirable. You will either have a pre-developed site and make use of the Registrar platform to sell domain names, or they will give you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can create your own personal site and form for placing orders. Normally, you have the option to decide between the two alternatives, so it all revolves around how skillful you are in these issues. As a domain reseller, you will do business under your very own brand name and not on behalf of the Registrar's.

Earn Money From Offering Web Page Hosting Solutions As Well

A reasonable addition to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting accounts too. Thus, you can give a package deal to customers who want to establish their online portal and need both a domain name and a web site hosting account. Certain firms have such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can order a Virtual Server or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain name reseller account and free-of-charge invoicing software to bill your customers. You can then sell Top-Level Domains and shared hosting plans to clients, and since they provide plenty of diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to provide domain and hosting services to individuals from all around the globe.
