Domain reseller

The Internet is an ever-expanding system that delivers new possibilities to make money on the Internet. One of these options is to be a domain reseller and offer domains to end users, making revenue 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 millions of presently active domains, so this is a growing trading niche that you can become a part of.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains

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

gTLDs and ccTLDs

The TLDs can be generic or country code. The gTLDs include the best known domain extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, while the country-code top-level domain names contain two-letter abbreviations that symbolize each country. Instances of ccTLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each Top-Level Domain, whether it is a gTLD or a country-code TLD, has a Registry - an organization that manages the registrations and sets the prerequisites that each specific top-level domain name may have, like the length of the registration term or the residency of the registrant. Certain Registrar firms work under the Registry. These are the corporations that in fact offer the domain name to customers and manage all domain name resource records.

Earn Cash From Trading Domain Names

Numerous Registrars have reseller programs that enable individuals to make money from selling domains to end customers. If you sign up for such a program, you can initiate your very own personal Internet business. As a rule, a domain will be more inexpensive if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is obtained straight from the Registrar by an end client. The explanation is that resellers can contact more clients in regional communities or states where the Registrar may not be famous at all. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both parties will take advantage of that. Your profit will be the difference between the price that the user pays and the one that the Registrar charges for the domain registration.

Resell Top-Level Domains On Behalf Of Your Very Own Trademark Name

When you subscribe to a domain reseller program, you will have a web site hosting Control Panel where you can fix the prices for the specific top-level domain names that the Registrar offers. Most corporations also provide billing management software and web design themes for your web storefront, and the automation of the whole process combined with the proliferating demand for domains render the domain name reseller industry so seductive. You will either get a pre-made website and use the Registrar system to sell domain names, or they will grant you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can set up your very own site and order form. Generally, you have the option to select between the two alternatives, so it all depends on how proficient you are in these issues. As a domain name reseller, you will operate under your own brand and not on behalf of the Registrar's brand.

Earn Cash From Selling Website Hosting Solutions Too

A relevant addition to your domain name reseller business would be to sell web hosting services as well. Thus, you can give a package deal to users who want to create their web site and demand both a domain and a web page hosting package. Particular firms supply such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can buy a Virtual Server or a dedicated server, and they will also give you a domain reseller account and free invoice software to bill your clients. You can then sell Top-Level Domains and shared hosting plans to customers, and since they offer a lot of different domain extensions, you will be able to provide domain and hosting services to clients from all around the globe.
