Discount domain names - do they exist?
If you're on a budget and want to start a website or get into the domain name reselling business, discount domain names are a dream come true. It is possible to register a domain name for a low price - it's not just a myth or a scam. In fact, low-priced domains are easy to find online because the web hosting business has become competitive enough to drive down prices all around.
With numerous registrars and web hosts vying for your business, companies offering discounted domain names are all over the place. In the past, getting a good deal was possible, but you had to spend a little more time researching different providers and seeking out the best deal available. Now it's almost impossible to not find discount domain names for sale. GoDaddy.com is a great example of a discount registrar.
Web hosting is another matter when it comes to price, but with domain name registration there's no point in paying more than a $10 annual fee. A lot of companies provide registration services for less than that amount, and you don't have to worry about something going wrong because of the low price tag. With domain names the registration process is fairly straightforward, hence the surplus of discounted domain names on the market. Often, you get more than just registration for the annual fee - providers attract customers by including bonus features, such as free e-mail and helpful technical support.
Plus, web companies offer discount domain names if you buy in bulk. Let's say you want to purchase a group of domain names, either to start a bunch of websites or to resell for a higher price at a later date, and don't want to spend too much money (it can add up quickly). Most registrars offer discounts when you buy more than one domain name - this can save you a lot of money! It's a great way to cut costs and purchase domain names for less.
Sometimes owners of a domain name put their site up for sale independently. If you've found a domain name you want, and it's 'for sale by owner,' search for domains that have a lot of potential and are selling for a low price. Sometimes people have no idea how much their domain is worth - if you do your homework and find these opportunities, you may come up with a goldmine of domain names.
