Domain reseller

The World Wide Web is an ever-flourishing system that offers new ways to earn money on the Web. One of these ways is to become a domain reseller and sell domain names to end users, earning revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each and every domain name. 1000's of domains are registered every day, and there are millions of currently active domains, so this is an enlarging marketing niche that you can be a part of.

Top-Level and Second-Level Domains

A domain name is made of 2 entities - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). If we take 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 generic top-level domain names include the most widely used domain name extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the ccTLDs contain two-letter abbreviations that signify each country. Examples of ccTLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each TLD, whether it is a generic or a country-code one, has a Registry - an institution that handles the registrations and determines the prerequisites that each given top-level domain name may have, including the duration of the registration term or the residency of the registrant. Certain Registrar companies operate under the Registry. These are the companies that actually sell the domain name to clients and manage all domain name resource records.

Earn Cash From Trading Domains

Many Registrars have reseller programs that permit individuals to make profit from selling domains to end clients. If you subscribe to such a program, you can commence your very own personal e-business. Normally, a domain will be cheaper if it is registered through a reseller rather than if it is obtained straight from the Registrar by an end customer. The cause is that resellers can reach more customers in regional districts or countries where the Registrar may not be popular whatsoever. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both sides will capitalize on that. Your profit will be the difference between the price that the customer pays and the one that the Registrar imposes for the domain registration.

Sell TLDs On Behalf Of Your Very Own Brand Name

When you register with a domain reseller program, you will get a web space hosting CP where you can choose the prices for the specific Top-Level Domains that the Registrar provides. Most firms also offer invoice transaction software and design skins for your virtual storefront, and the automation of the whole procedure combined with the expanding demand for domains make the domain reseller market niche so alluring. You will either acquire a ready-to-use site and utilize the Registrar system to resell domain names, or they will give you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can make your very own portal and form for placing orders. Normally, you have the opportunity to select between the 2 possibilities, so it all revolves around how trained you are in these things. As a domain name reseller, you will operate on behalf of your own trademark name and not under the Registrar's.

Gain Money From Reselling Web Space Hosting Packages As Well

An appropriate supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting packages as well. Thus, you can offer a package deal to clients who desire to establish their site and require both a domain name and a web site hosting account. A number of companies provide such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for instance, you can order a VPS or a dedicated server, and they will also give you a domain name reseller account and free-of-charge billing software to charge your clients. You can then sell domain names and shared hosting plans to clients, and since they offer lots of diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to offer domain name and hosting services to people from all around the world.
