Domain reseller

The Internet is an ever-enlarging community that generates new opportunities to earn money online. One of them is to become a domain name reseller and sell domain names to end clients, generating revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each and every domain name. Thousands of domains are registered every day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently active domain names, so this is an increasing marketing niche that you can become engaged in.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

A domain involves 2 components - a top-level domain name (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). If we take domain.com, for example, ".com" is the TLD and "domain" is the SLD.

gTLDs and ccTLDs

The TLDs can be generic or country code. The generic TLDs comprise the most famous domain extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, while the ccTLDs contain two-letter abbreviations that denote each country. Examples of country-code top-level domain names are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each TLD, whether it is a generic TLD or a country-code Top-Level Domain, has a Registry - an institution that manages the registrations and determines the requirements that each particular Top-Level Domain may entail, such as the length of the registration period or the citizenship of the registrant. Certain Registrar companies operate under the Registry. These are the firms that in fact offer the domain name to clients and handle all domain name records.

Make Cash From Selling Domains

Multiple Registrars have reseller programs that allow individuals to earn revenue from offering domains to end users. If you sign up for such a program, you can set up your own online business. Typically, a domain name will be cheaper if it is registered through a reseller rather than if it is bought directly from the Registrar by an end client. The reason is that resellers can reach more users in local regions or states 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 profit will be the difference between the price that the client pays and the one that the Registrar levies for the domain name registration.

Resell Domains On Behalf Of Your Very Own Personal Trademark Name

When you register with a domain reseller program, you will acquire a web site hosting CP where you can determine the prices for the specific Top-Level Domains that the Registrar provides. Most firms also provide invoice management software and site templates for your web store, and the automation of the entire procedure together with the strong demand for domains make the domain reseller market so desirable. You will either acquire a pre-made website and avail of the Registrar system to resell domains, or they will give you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can set up your own personal site and form for placing orders. Usually, you have the opportunity to select between the two possibilities, so it all revolves around how advanced you are in these affairs. As a domain reseller, you will do business under your very own personal trademark name and not under the Registrar's brand.

Earn Money From Reselling Web Page Hosting Services Too

A reasonable addition to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting services too. In this way, you can offer a package deal to persons who would like to set up their site and need both a domain and a website hosting account. Given corporations have such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can order a Virtual Server or a dedicated server, and they will also give you a domain name reseller account and free invoice management software to charge your clients. You can then offer TLDs and shared web hosting accounts to clients, and since they provide plenty of different domain name extensions, you will be able to offer domain and hosting services to clients from all around the globe.
