Domain reseller

The World Wide Web is an ever-flourishing system that delivers new possibilities to make money online. One of these possibilities is to be a domain name reseller and offer domain names to end clients, gaining revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each domain name. 1000's of domains are registered each and every day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently functioning domains, so this is an enlarging business niche that you can become a part of.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

A domain comprises 2 parts - a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). If we take domain.com, for instance, ".com" is the top-level domain name and "domain" is the SLD.

Generic and Country-Code Top-Level Domains

The TLDs can be generic or country code. The generic top-level domain names include the most famous domain name extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, while the country-code Top-Level Domains include two-character abbreviations that denote each country. Examples of ccTLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each top-level domain name, whether it is a generic top-level domain name or a country-code TLD, has a Registry - an institution that handles the registrations and determines the prerequisites that each concrete TLD may have, including the length of the registration period or the residency of the registrant. A number of Registrar companies operate under the Registry. These are the firms that in fact sell the domain name to clients and handle all DNS resource records.

Earn Money From Trading Domain Names

A lot of Registrars have reseller programs that permit people to earn revenue from selling domain names to end customers. If you register with such a program, you can kick off your own personal e-business. Commonly, a domain will cost less if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is obtained directly from the Registrar by an end customer. The reason is that resellers can contact more clients in local regions or states where the Registrar may not be famous whatsoever. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both sides will earn a profit from that. Your revenue will be the difference between the price that the client pays and the one that the Registrar requires for the domain registration.

Resell Domain Names Under Your Personal Brand Name

When you register with a domain name reseller program, you will have a Control Panel where you can determine the prices for the individual Top-Level Domains that the Registrar offers. Most companies also offer invoice software and site layouts for your online store, and the automation of the entire procedure together with the vast demand for domains make the domain reseller business niche so alluring. You will either obtain a ready-made website and utilize the Registrar platform to sell domain names, or they will give you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can make your very own personal web page and form for placing orders. Generally, you have the opportunity to decide between the 2 options, so it all revolves around how expert you are in these things. As a domain reseller, you will sell under your own personal brand name and not on behalf of the Registrar's.

Make Profit From Selling Web Site Hosting Solutions As Well

A proper supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting plans too. In this way, you can offer a package deal to users who desire to run their site and demand both a domain name and a hosting account. A number of corporations provide such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can order a VPS 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 packages to customers, and since they provide lots of diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to offer domain name and hosting services to users from all over the globe.
