Back to Business

For all internet freaks - one thing stands out clear for any company is getting a good Domain Name. With over 600 million strong internet users and counting - the demand to get online is increasing everyday!!!!
How can you as an individual join this movement and make money everyday?
Suppose you are a freelancer who
a. Develops sites for others. &
b. Host or manage Sites for others or
c. Develop and maintain your own website(s).
Now questions
Where do you buy domain name?
Where do you host them?
What do you get - if you do it from public service providers?
Do you get commision from them?
Answers
If you & your friends develop and host sites regularly - you should become a reseller!!!
How does it work?
For every domain that is registered on YOUR Domain Registration Site - You get attractive commisions. For every hosting package sold - You share the profits. Why is it good, because - You are the buyer (for someone) and You are the seller !!! so a win win for any and every activity that is related to domain hosting and registration services.
How much does it cost?
Well - GDaddy is worlds largest reseller with plans that start from $99 (Approx INR 4100) that go upto $239 (Approx INR 10000 at current conversion rates) www.pubdomainshost.com offers same services that are available for $80 (INR 3200) to $179 (INR 7200) .
What do you gain?
Well with a single hosting plan and domain name registration - you can make cool commisions from sites hosted on your (reseller) servers.
Support
pubdomainshost.com creates your virtual store - so not only you, but anyone on the internet can come and register or buy from you - do a bit of marketing and get the orders from all over the globe!! They offer 24x7 support to your customers as part of the package, and help your customers to succeed!!! Who would give you these services for price as low as $80!!!
Reseller Fees
Trust me, with a small expenditure of 80 USD on pubdomainshost.com - I have already recovered my investment from a site that I recently created through Rent a Coder. Not only did my customer pay for creating his site for about 150 USD, he hosted it through my site and I got back all my money that I invested. September onwards - any sale I make would be my profits :) Ain't it amazing that I have customers whom I have never seen in my life!!! They come, they buy from my site, and I make profits selling stuff without negotiations, office or even any conversation. It can't get simple than that.
Competition
There are many players in the market so it is natural to think about your chances of success - but on a serious thought, there are so many sellers because there are many more buyers!!!! This is an ever growing space, with names coming up with .mobi, .tv, .ws extensions - everyone has an opportunity to own their own domain name or get online and have a site. Sooner or later - you would be doing it for your company, family, friends or yourself. Why do it at some other place, why don't you do it on your own site and be in a Win Win Situation.
Grab this opportunity to take your share of Internet revolution and be a webmaster - and service provider.

Good luck Friends!!!
