Domain reseller

The Internet is an ever-growing community that supplies new opportunities to earn cash on the Internet. One of these options is to be a domain name reseller and offer domain names to end clients, generating revenue from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each domain name. 1000's of domains are registered each and every day, and there are millions of currently functioning domain names, so this is an increasing business niche that you can become a part of.

TLDs and SLDs

A domain comprises 2 components - 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 and "domain" is the SLD.

Generic and Country-Code TLDs

The Top-Level Domains can be generic or country code. The generic Top-Level Domains comprise the most common domain extensions like .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the country-code Top-Level Domains are composed of two-character abbreviations that symbolize each country. Instances of country-code top-level domain names are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each top-level domain name, whether it is a generic top-level domain name or a country-code top-level domain name, has a Registry - an institution that handles the registrations and sets the preconditions that each specific Top-Level Domain may impose, among them the duration of the registration term or the residency of the registrant. Certain Registrar firms work under the Registry. These are the corporations that in fact sell the domain name to clients and administer all DNS records.

Make Money From Selling Domain Names

Numerous Registrars have reseller programs that enable people to make profit from offering domain names to end users. If you subscribe to such a program, you can begin your own personal Internet business. Typically, a domain name will be more inexpensive if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is purchased straight from the Registrar by an end client. The cause is that resellers can reach more individuals in areas or countries where the Registrar may not be known whatsoever. This means more sales for the Registrar, so both parties will benefit from that. Your revenue will be the difference between the price that the user pays and the one that the Registrar charges for the domain name registration.

Sell Top-Level Domains On Behalf Of Your Very Own Personal Brand

When you sign up for a domain name reseller program, you will acquire a CP where you can fix the prices for the individual TLDs that the Registrar offers. Most firms also provide invoicing software and web design themes for your online storefront, and the automation of the whole process combined with the enormous demand for domain names render the domain reseller business so alluring. You will either obtain a pre-made website and use the Registrar platform to sell domains, or they will grant you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can set up your very own web page and order form. Traditionally, you have the option to select between the 2 possibilities, so it all revolves around how practiced you are in these things. As a domain reseller, you will work under your very own personal brand and not on behalf of the Registrar's brand.

Earn Cash From Promoting Web Site Hosting Solutions Too

A perfect supplement to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting packages too. Thus, you can give a package deal to individuals who would like to create their site and demand both a domain and a web site hosting plan. Certain firms offer such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can have a Virtual Server or a dedicated server, and they will also give you a domain reseller account and free-of-charge billing transaction software to charge your customers. You can then offer TLDs and shared website hosting plans to clients, and since they provide plenty of different domain name extensions, you will be able to provide domain name and hosting services to customers from all around the world.
