Domain reseller

The World Wide Web is an ever-growing platform that offers new options to earn money on the Internet. One of them is to become a domain reseller and offer domains to end clients, making profit from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each and every domain name. Thousands of domain names are registered each and every day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently active domain names, so this is a blooming marketing niche that you can become a part of.

TLDs and SLDs

A domain includes two parts - a Top-Level Domain (TLD) and a second-level domain name (SLD). If we take domain.com, for instance, ".com" is the Top-Level Domain and "domain" is the SLD.

gTLDs and ccTLDs

The Top-Level Domains can be generic or country code. The gTLDs include the most conventional domain name extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, while the country-code TLDs include 2-character abbreviations that represent each country. Instances of country-code top-level domain names are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each TLD, whether it is a generic or a country-code top-level domain name, has a Registry - an organization that handles the registrations and determines the requirements that each particular top-level domain name may contain, like the duration of the registration period or the residency of the registrant. A number of Registrar firms operate under the Registry. These are the corporations that in fact sell the domain name to clients and manage all domain name resource records.

Make Revenue From Offering Domain Names

A lot of Registrars have reseller programs that permit people to gain profit from selling domain names to end clients. If you sign up for such a program, you can commence your very own personal online business. Usually, a domain will be more inexpensive if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is bought straight from the Registrar by an end customer. The cause is that resellers can contact more customers in areas or countries where the Registrar may not be famous whatsoever. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both parties will earn a profit from that. Your profit will be the difference between the price that the client pays and the one that the Registrar imposes for the domain registration.

Offer Top-Level Domains On Behalf Of Your Own Personal Brand

When you subscribe to a domain name reseller program, you will get a web hosting Control Panel where you can settle the prices for the individual top-level domain names that the Registrar offers. Most firms also offer invoice management software and website skins for your web storefront, and the automation of the entire procedure coupled with the big demand for domain names make the domain reseller business so attractive. You will either acquire a ready-to-use website and utilize the Registrar platform to sell domains, or they will offer you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can build your very own portal and order form. Typically, you have the option to select between the 2 alternatives, so it all depends on how proficient you are in these affairs. As a domain reseller, you will sell on behalf of your own personal trademark name and not on behalf of the Registrar's.

Gain Revenue From Supplying Site Hosting Services As Well

A reasonable supplement to your domain name reseller business would be to sell web hosting packages too. In this way, you can offer a package deal to people who would like to have their site and demand both a domain and a web site hosting package. Certain firms furnish such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can have a Virtual Dedicated Server or a dedicated server, and they will also give you a domain name reseller account and free billing transaction software to bill your clients. You can then sell domains and shared hosting packages to customers, and since they offer a lot of different domain extensions, you will be able to offer domain and hosting services to customers from all over the globe.
