Domain name reseller

The World Wide Web is an ever-increasing platform that delivers new ways to gain cash on the Web. One of these possibilities is to be a domain name reseller and sell domains to end customers, generating profit 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 millions of currently active domains, so this is an enlarging trading niche that you can be engaged in.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

A domain includes 2 components - a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). If we pick domain.com, for example, ".com" is the TLD and "domain" is the SLD.

gTLDs and ccTLDs

The top-level domain names can be generic or country code. The generic top-level domain names comprise the most famous domain extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the ccTLDs comprise two-letter abbreviations that stand for 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 gTLD or a country-code top-level domain name, has a Registry - an organization that handles the registrations and sets the preconditions that each specific Top-Level Domain may entail, such as the duration of the registration term or the residency of the registrant. Certain Registrar firms operate under the Registry. These are the firms that actually sell the domain name to clients and administer all domain name records.

Gain Cash From Selling Domains

Lots of Registrars have reseller programs that permit individuals to earn revenue from offering domains to end customers. If you register with such a program, you can launch your very own web business. Generally, a domain name will be more inexpensive if it is registered through a reseller rather than if it is obtained straight from the Registrar by an end client. The cause is that resellers can reach more persons in local communities or countries where the Registrar may not be popular at all. This implies more sales for the Registrar, so both parties 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 charges for the domain name registration.

Offer TLDs Under Your Very Own Personal Trademark Name

When you subscribe to a domain reseller program, you will obtain a hosting Control Panel where you can determine the prices for the specific Top-Level Domains that the Registrar offers. Most firms also provide invoicing transaction software and design skins for your web shop, and the automation of the whole procedure combined with the immense demand for domain names make the domain reseller market niche so attractive. You will either get a ready-to-use site and utilize 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 option to select between the 2 possibilities, so it all depends on how proficient you are in these things. As a domain name reseller, you will work under your very own personal brand and not under the Registrar's brand.

Make Cash From Promoting Site Hosting Plans Too

An adequate supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting services as well. Thereby, you can offer a package deal to customers who want to launch their site and require both a domain and a site hosting package. Particular companies furnish such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can buy a VPS or a dedicated server, and they will also give you a domain name reseller account and free-of-cost invoice transaction software to bill your customers. You can then sell domain names and shared web hosting packages to customers, and since they offer plenty of diverse domain extensions, you will be able to offer domain and hosting services to individuals from all over the world.
