Domain name reseller

The Internet is an ever-enlarging community that delivers new ways to earn money on the Web. One of these options is to be a domain reseller and offer domain names to end users, generating profit from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each and every domain name. 1000's of domains are registered each and every day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently functioning domain names, so this is a blossoming marketing niche that you can become engaged in.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains Names

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

gTLDs and ccTLDs

The top-level domain names can be generic or country code. The gTLDs include the most popular domain extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the ccTLDs are made of 2-letter abbreviations that correspond to each country. Examples of ccTLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each TLD, whether it is a generic Top-Level Domain or a ccTLD, has a Registry - an institution that is responsible for the registrations and determines the prerequisites that each given Top-Level Domain may contain, like the length of the registration term or the residency of the registrant. Certain Registrar corporations work under the Registry. These are the corporations that in fact sell the domain name to customers and manage all domain name resource records.

Earn Revenue From Selling Domains

Multiple Registrars have reseller programs that permit people to earn revenue from selling domain names to end customers. If you sign up for such a program, you can kickstart your own personal web business. As a rule, a domain 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 reason is that resellers can reach more persons in areas or countries where the Registrar may not be popular at all. This implies more sales for the Registrar, so both parties will capitalize on that. Your revenue will be the difference between the price that the customer pays and the one that the Registrar charges for the domain registration.

Offer Top-Level Domains On Behalf Of Your Own Personal Trademark Name

When you register with a domain name reseller program, you will acquire a web page hosting CP where you can select the prices for the different TLDs that the Registrar provides. Most firms also offer billing management software and site layouts for your web shop, and the automation of the whole process together with the growing demand for domain names render the domain reseller market niche so desirable. You will either have a pre-developed site and utilize the Registrar platform to sell domains, or they will give you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can build your very own web page and order form. Generally, you have the opportunity to select between the two possibilities, so it all revolves around how skillful you are in these affairs. As a domain name reseller, you will operate under your very own brand name and not on behalf of the Registrar's brand.

Earn Cash From Providing Site Hosting Accounts As Well

A proper supplement to your domain name reseller business would be to sell web hosting packages too. In this way, you can give a package deal to individuals who desire to manage their website and require both a domain name and a webspace hosting account. Some corporations have such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can purchase a VPS or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain name reseller account and charge-free invoice management software to bill your clients. You can then sell domain names and shared hosting packages to clients, and since they offer plenty of different domain extensions, you will be able to offer domain and hosting services to customers from all over the world.
