Domain name reseller

The Internet is an ever-flourishing system that delivers new ways to earn money online. One of these possibilities is to be a domain name reseller and sell domain names to end customers, making revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail cost of each and every domain name. 1000's of domain names are registered every day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently active domains, so this is an increasing business niche that you can be involved in.

TLDs and SLDs

A domain includes 2 constituents - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (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 TLDs include the most conventional domain name extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, while the country-code TLDs consist of 2-letter abbreviations that symbolize each country. Examples of country-code Top-Level Domains are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each top-level domain name, whether it is a generic or a country-code one, has a Registry - an organization that administers the registrations and determines the preconditions that each particular top-level domain name may impose, including the length of the registration period or the residency of the registrant. A number of Registrar firms operate under the Registry. These are the corporations that actually offer the domain name to customers and administer all domain records.

Earn Revenue From Reselling Domains

Multiple Registrars have reseller programs that enable individuals to gain profit from offering domain names to end users. If you register with such a program, you can commence your very own personal web business. Typically, a domain name will be cheaper if it is registered through a reseller rather than if it is purchased directly from the Registrar by an end user. The cause is that resellers can contact more people in provinces or countries where the Registrar may not be known at all. This implies more sales for the Registrar, so both sides will cash in on that. Your profit will be the difference between the price that the customer pays and the one that the Registrar levies for the domain registration.

Resell Domains On Behalf Of Your Own Brand

When you sign up for a domain reseller program, you will acquire a CP where you can fix the prices for the different Top-Level Domains that the Registrar provides. Most corporations also provide billing software and web site layouts for your virtual storefront, and the automation of the entire procedure combined with the growing demand for domains render the domain reseller market niche so desirable. You will either have a pre-made website and make use of the Registrar platform to resell domain names, or they will give you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can create your very own web site and form for placing orders. Normally, you have the opportunity to pick between the two possibilities, so it all revolves around how proficient you are in these issues. As a domain name reseller, you will sell on behalf of your personal brand name and not on behalf of the Registrar's.

Gain Money From Providing Site Hosting Plans As Well

A logical supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting packages as well. In this way, you can give a package deal to individuals who wish to create their web site and require both a domain and a web hosting plan. Given companies provide such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can buy a VPS or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain name reseller account and charge-free billing management software to charge your customers. You can then offer domains and shared hosting plans to customers, and since they offer a lot of diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to provide domain and hosting services to people from all around the world.
