When you get a web hosting server with the idea to start your personal web hosting company and to resell plans to other people, you may as well wish to sell domain names, in order to give your clients the opportunity to get everything they need for their new website from one place. Being a certified registrar involves thousands of dollars plus a considerable amount of documentation, so the most effective solution is to register for a domain reseller account with a pre-existing registrar company. Your reseller site will be connected to that account via the registrar's API. Employing this type of account has various benefits - all of your customers will be able to acquire and to take care of new domains effortlessly; the cost of a brand new registration is lower compared to what you'd have to spend as an end customer; last but not least you're able to start reselling without delay. The registrar businesses which sell domain reseller accounts in most cases need some money as a deposit.
