Being a domain name reseller

cowboy · 10-14-2005, 09:47 AM

How to be a domain name reseller? I'm selling blog hosting at a very cheap price (prefer to provide service rather than earning lots of money), so I'm tired of referring people to other sites for their domain name registration. How can I be a reseller for domain name and which resellers program should I go for? Thanks!

GoDaddy is quite good for their reseller program. Alternatively, you can join CommissionJunction and promote domain name sales for GoDaddy and a host of other domain registrars.

Hmm...but I'm not really sure how GoDaddy resellers work. Seems like it comes together with hosting plans and I have to pay a setup fee?

As for commissionjunction...what is it? Afflliate program? Which means I still have to redirect my customers to GoDaddy?

Godaddy reseller is wild west domains,I have one,I really can't recomend it because the price is to high,But there are others such as directi,Enom ect that have pretty nice reseller plans.I would'nt have bought mine if it hadn't only cost me $15.

I have a reseller account with DirectI. Pricing is good ($6.95) but the interface is a bit bulky and the system is not always reliable.

I'm tempted to try one of these reseller plans... do coupon codes work on registering names with a godaddy reseller? I'm more interested in cheap prices for myself since I own about 200 domains.

No, they don't.

Then maybe you could try http://www.moniker.com/ . Talk to them, they'll probably give you a good discount price.

bentong · 10-15-2005, 07:13 AM

is there a registrar that doesn't require you to fund your account to become a reseller?

sdsinc · 10-15-2005, 07:21 AM

DirectI for example. Funding possible with Paypal as you go.

Godaddy has one of the best reseller plans Imo.

FletchRus · 10-15-2005, 01:32 PM

GoDaddy and Directi... First one I like better but Directi is a bit cheaper...

Does anyone here actually use GoDaddy/Wild West Domains? Do you make a profit after paying the $100 a year?

Some do...and I can imagine that most don't

Do a search for 'affiliate programs'. Whereby you get a commision for referring the buyer (as simple as them clicking a link at your site to theirs).
