Domain name reseller

The World Wide Web is an ever-growing network that delivers new opportunities to make cash on the Internet. One of them is to be a domain name reseller and offer domain names to end users, making revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each and every domain name. Thousands of domain names are registered each day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently active domains, so this is an expanding marketing niche that you can become a part of.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

A domain is composed of two pieces - a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). If we pick domain.com, for example, ".com" is the top-level domain name and "domain" is the Second-Level Domain.

Generic and Country-Code TLDs

The top-level domain names can be generic or country code. The generic TLDs include the most widespread domain name extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the country-code top-level domain names include 2-character abbreviations that stand for each country. Instances of ccTLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each top-level domain name, whether it is a generic TLD or a country-code top-level domain name, has a Registry - an organization that is responsible for the registrations and sets the preconditions that each particular Top-Level Domain may have, like the duration of the registration term or the citizenship of the registrant. A number of Registrar companies work under the Registry. These are the firms that actually offer the domain name to customers and handle all domain name resource records.

Gain Revenue From Offering Domain Names

Numerous Registrars have reseller programs that enable people to earn cash from offering domain names to end customers. If you sign up for such a program, you can begin your own personal Internet business. Typically, a domain name will be more inexpensive if it is registered through a reseller rather than if it is obtained directly from the Registrar by an end customer. The reason is that resellers can reach more customers in provinces or countries where the Registrar may not be known at all. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both sides will profit from that. Your revenue will be the difference between the price that the client pays and the one that the Registrar imposes for the domain name registration.

Trade Domains On Behalf Of Your Very Own Personal Brand Name

When you sign up for a domain reseller program, you will get a web hosting CP where you can determine the prices for the individual Top-Level Domains that the Registrar provides. Most companies also offer invoice management software and site skins for your web storefront, and the automation of the whole procedure together with the flourishing demand for domains make the domain name reseller business niche so alluring. You will either get a ready-made site and make use of the Registrar system to sell domains, or they will offer you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can build your own personal website and form for placing orders. Typically, you have the option to pick between the 2 alternatives, so it all revolves around how practiced you are in these affairs. As a domain reseller, you will sell on behalf of your own personal brand and not under the Registrar's.

Earn Profit From Trading Hosting Packages As Well

A reasonable supplement to your domain name reseller business would be to sell web hosting packages too. Thereby, you can give a package deal to persons who desire to set up their web page and require both a domain name and a web hosting plan. Given corporations offer such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can have a Virtual Dedicated Server or a dedicated server, and they will also give you a domain name reseller account and free billing software to charge your clients. You can then offer domain names and shared hosting packages to clients, and since they provide lots of different domain name extensions, you will be able to provide domain name and hosting services to individuals from all over the globe.
