Domain reseller

The Internet is an ever-expanding network that provides new options to make money on the Internet. One of these ways is to be a domain name reseller and sell domains to end users, earning profit from the difference between the wholesale and the retail cost of each and every domain name. Thousands of domains are registered every day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently functioning domains, so this is a developing business niche that you can be involved in.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

A domain is composed of two components - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). If we take domain.com, for instance, ".com" is the TLD and "domain" is the SLD.

Generic and Country-Code Top-Level Domain Names

The TLDs can be generic or country code. The gTLDs comprise the most conventional domain name extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the country-code Top-Level Domains contain two-letter abbreviations that correspond to each country. Examples of country-code TLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each Top-Level Domain, whether it is a generic Top-Level Domain or a country-code TLD, has a Registry - an institution that is responsible for the registrations and sets the prerequisites that each given Top-Level Domain may involve, such as the length of the registration period or the residency of the registrant. Certain Registrar firms operate under the Registry. These are the firms that actually offer the domain name to customers and manage all DNS records.

Earn Cash From Trading Domain Names

A lot of Registrars have reseller programs that permit people to earn cash from offering domains to end customers. If you register with such a program, you can start your very own e-business. Typically, a domain name will be cheaper if it is registered through a reseller rather than if it is bought straight from the Registrar by an end client. The cause is that resellers can contact more users in provinces or states where the Registrar may not be famous at all. 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 imposes for the domain name registration.

Sell Domains On Behalf Of Your Very Own Trademark Name

When you sign up for a domain name reseller program, you will acquire a Control Panel where you can settle the prices for the different TLDs that the Registrar offers. Most firms also offer billing transaction software and website skins for your web shop, and the automation of the entire procedure together with the proliferating demand for domain names make the domain name reseller market so desirable. You will either acquire a ready-made site and avail of the Registrar system to sell domains, or they will offer you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can make your very own portal and form for placing orders. Typically, you have the option to select between the two options, so it all revolves around how advanced you are in these issues. As a domain name reseller, you will do business on behalf of your personal brand name and not under the Registrar's brand.

Make Cash From Promoting Web Space Hosting Packages Too

A perfect supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting services as well. In this way, you can offer a package deal to individuals who would like to have their website and demand both a domain name and a webspace hosting package. Given corporations supply such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can manage a VPS or a dedicated server, and they will also give you a domain name reseller account and free invoice management software to charge your customers. You can then sell top-level domain names and shared web hosting plans to clients, and since they provide plenty of diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to provide domain name and hosting services to clients from all over the globe.
