Domain name reseller

The World Wide Web is an ever-expanding platform that generates new possibilities to earn cash on the Web. One of these ways is to become a domain reseller and sell domains to end clients, making revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail cost of each and every domain name. 1000's of domains are registered every day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently active domains, so this is an enlarging trading niche that you can become involved in.

TLDs and SLDs

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

Generic and Country-Code Top-Level Domains

The top-level domain names can be generic or country code. The generic top-level domain names comprise the most widespread domain extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the country-code Top-Level Domains are composed of 2-letter abbreviations that represent each country. Instances of ccTLDs are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each TLD, whether it is a generic Top-Level Domain or a country-code TLD, has a Registry - an institution that administers the registrations and determines the prerequisites that each specific Top-Level Domain may impose, such as the duration of the registration period or the citizenship of the registrant. Certain Registrar firms work under the Registry. These are the firms that in fact offer the domain name to clients and administer all DNS records.

Make Cash From Reselling Domain Names

Multiple Registrars have reseller programs that permit people to earn cash from offering domain names to end customers. If you sign up for such a program, you can kick off your very own personal online business. As a rule, a domain name will cost less if it is registered through a reseller rather than if it is purchased straight from the Registrar by an end user. The cause is that resellers can reach more persons in local communities or states where the Registrar may not be popular at all. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both sides will earn a profit from that. Your revenue will be the difference between the price that the user pays and the one that the Registrar levies for the domain registration.

Trade Domains Under Your Personal Brand Name

When you register with a domain name reseller program, you will get a webspace hosting CP where you can choose the prices for the different top-level domain names that the Registrar offers. Most corporations also provide billing management software and design skins for your online storefront, and the automation of the whole procedure coupled with the big demand for domain names make the domain name reseller business so seductive. You will either have a ready-to-use website and utilize the Registrar platform to sell domain names, or they will give you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can build your very own online portal and form for placing orders. Normally, you have the option to pick between the two options, so it all revolves around how accomplished you are in these things. As a domain reseller, you will work under your very own personal trademark name and not on behalf of the Registrar's.

Earn Profit From Reselling Web Hosting Accounts Too

A sensible supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting accounts too. In this way, you can offer a package deal to clients who wish to build their website and demand both a domain and a web space hosting plan. Particular corporations offer such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can manage a Virtual Dedicated Server or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain name reseller account and cost-free billing management software to charge your customers. You can then offer TLDs and shared website hosting plans to customers, and since they offer plenty of diverse domain name extensions, you will be able to offer domain and hosting services to customers from all over the world.
