Domain name reseller

The Internet is an ever-growing community that provides new ways to earn money on the Web. One of these options is to be a domain name reseller and offer domains to end customers, gaining profit from the difference between the wholesale and the retail price of each domain name. 1000's of domain names are registered every day, and there are 1 000 000's of currently functioning domains, so this is an expanding trading niche that you can become involved in.

TLDs and SLDs

A domain involves 2 parts - a top-level domain name (TLD) and a Second-Level Domain (SLD). If we take domain.com, for instance, ".com" is the top-level domain name and "domain" is the SLD.

Generic and Country-Code Top-Level Domains

The TLDs can be generic or country code. The generic TLDs include the most widely used domain extensions such as .com, .net, .org, .mobi, .info, whereas the ccTLDs comprise 2-letter abbreviations that signify each country. Instances of country-code top-level domain names are .ca, .me, .fr, .es, and so on. Each Top-Level Domain, whether it is a generic TLD or a country-code TLD, has a Registry - an organization that administers the registrations and determines the preconditions that each given Top-Level Domain may have, including the duration of the registration period or the citizenship of the registrant. A number of Registrar companies operate under the Registry. These are the corporations that actually offer the domain name to customers and manage all domain name records.

Earn Money From Trading Domain Names

Multiple Registrars have reseller programs that enable individuals to make revenue from offering domain names to end customers. If you register with such a program, you can commence your very own e-business. Normally, a domain name will cost less if it is registered via a reseller rather than if it is bought directly from the Registrar by an end customer. The explanation is that resellers can contact more customers in local communities or countries where the Registrar may not be popular whatsoever. This implies more sales for the Registrar, so both sides will cash in on that. Your revenue will be the difference between the price that the user pays and the one that the Registrar imposes for the domain registration.

Resell Domain Names On Behalf Of Your Personal Brand

When you register with a domain reseller program, you will get a website hosting Control Panel where you can settle the prices for the different top-level domain names that the Registrar offers. Most corporations also provide invoice management software and web themes for your virtual store, and the automation of the entire process together with the proliferating demand for domain names render the domain name reseller market so seductive. You will either obtain a ready-to-use web site and make use of the Registrar system to resell domain names, or they will offer you access to their API (Application Programming Interface) so that you can build your very own personal web portal and form for placing orders. Generally, you have the opportunity to select between the 2 alternatives, so it all depends on how proficient you are in these issues. As a domain reseller, you will sell under your own brand and not under the Registrar's.

Earn Money From Offering Web Space Hosting Services As Well

An adequate addition to your domain reseller business would be to sell web hosting services too. In this way, you can give a package deal to customers who would like to establish their online portal and need both a domain and a web site hosting package. Particular corporations provide such options. With 'ResellersPanel', for example, you can have a Virtual Private Server or a dedicated server, and they will also offer you a domain name reseller account and free invoicing transaction software to bill your customers. You can then sell top-level domain names and shared website hosting packages to clients, and since they offer lots of different domain extensions, you will be able to offer domain name and hosting services to customers from all over the world.
