When you buy a server with the intent to start your individual website hosting company and to resell plans to various other people, you may as well need to sell domain names, so that you can give your customers the chance to purchase everything they want for their new site from a single place. Becoming an accredited registrar involves thousands of dollars and a considerable amount of documentation, so the most effective solution would be to sign up for a domain name reseller account with an existing registrar company. Your reseller site will be linked to that account through the registrar's API. Employing this type of account has many different benefits - your customers will be able to acquire and to take care of new domain names without any difficulty; the cost of a brand new registration will be lower when compared to what you'd have to spend as an end customer; what's more you can start reselling without delay. The registrar companies that sell domain reseller accounts almost always need some money as a deposit.
