Hello,

I'm currently doing $16k in domains with resellerclub but the bulk price that I'm getting with them is $7.69 for .Net/Com domains.

Does any one know a registrar that offer .Net for around $5.5 and .Com for around $7.15 range (for bulk purchase)?

I'm currently considering www.netearthone.com that offer in the same range but I'm considering more options. I'm only interested in ICANN registrars that are in 3 or more years in business.

Look forward to your recommendations.

Of the logicbox registrars I would recommend www.resell.biz & www.netearthone.com. I have used both, Resell.biz has the lowest price, is best for those who don't need hand-holding, & is operated by the UK2.NET/US2.NET/MidPhase group. netearthone.com is slightly more expensive with faster support.

Try with enom and reseller club.

Pretty sure you can't touch those prices through Enom.

Considering cost, 7.69$ is a very good pricing at this moment.

resell.biz and netearthone.com are good suggestions.

resellone.net is cheaper (below cost), but i've read that their tech support is slow,for long time seemed an abandoned project from old ev1, now theplanet.
Their forums were abandoned, full of spam, today they have cleaned all the mess in their forums, maybe they could deserve a second chance, but i recommend you to investigate it before putting your money in.

I have been using NetEarthOne.com for 2 years now and while www.resell.biz is cheaper. It's still and easy choice for me to stay with NetEarthOne. Their support is superb. It's online every time I have needed it. Their responses have always been polite and quick. Even when it was my fault for the issue they have always helped me.

For the sake of .50 cents per .com I could save,I am happy to pay the extra to know I have someone to help when I really need it.

Try with enom and reseller club.next time before you signature advertise please at least read the post. :D

I'm currently doing $16k in domains with resellerclub

For the likes of enom and resellerclub it is difficult to go lower than that since they have a lot more operational costs than the smaller registrars.

Also, I would not sacrifice support for that extra 40-50 cents a year!!

I assume you need to think about the customer services as well not only about the price. In this sense I assume enom is one of the best. That is my vision

I assume you need to think about the customer services as well not only about the price.
I have my own support staff and I'm reselling in bulk for my resellers so support is not going to be a big issue unless if their system has lot of errors etc.

Of the logicbox registrars I would recommend www.resell.biz & www.netearthone.com. I have used both, Resell.biz has the lowest price, is best for those who don't need hand-holding, & is operated by the UK2.NET/US2.NET/MidPhase group. netearthone.com is slightly more expensive with faster support.Thanks :agree:

At $6.95 Resell.biz .COM seems to be the cheapest. Does the price include the ICANN fee?

You can also checkout resellone
They sell for $6.49 but not sure if that includes the ICANN fee and CC fees.

Thanks :agree:

yes, that incl. all fee's.

yes, that incl. all fee's.Thanks! Is there a c/c processing fee when we topup the account?

Check out http://www.connectreseller.com

yes, that incl. all fee's.

eming,

How its affordable to you? Registry cost is 6.86 and ICANN is 0.20 total comes to $7.06, why you guys are selling at $6.95 and doing loss of $0.11.

Even if i count your payment to Logicboxes, its somewhere around $0.35

so total loss of $0.46...

I'm currently doing $16k in domains with resellerclub but the bulk price that I'm getting with them is $7.69 for .Net/Com domains.

With registrar costs at $6.86 and $4.98 (PLUS ICANN fee of 18 to 20 cents) for .COM and .NET respectively, I doubt you would get prices with razor-thin profit from a HEALTHY registrar with that relatively low volume (of about 2,500 domains). It's very unlikely that those nickels and dimes could cover BOTH overheads AND profit.

It's very unlikely that those nickels and dimes could cover BOTH overheads AND profit.Actually I talked to Planet, they do offer it for $6.49 with no extra fees but their not my cup of tea as they don't support the reseller feature.

What do you mean by "they don't support the reseller feature"?

Junkfriend (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/member.php?u=102832)

you mean they dont provide you support if your domains stucks in processing.

if they dont give you cup of tea then its ok but they need to support.

What do you mean by "they don't support the reseller feature"?

According to me it means you cannot be a reseller of ThePlanet for selling domains. For them all are customers and they have the same rate for everybody.

Does any one know a registrar that offer .Net for around $5.5 and .Com for around $7.15 range (for bulk purchase)?You are expecting the provider not to have any profit, or should I say, sell for a loss? .net itself cost $5.18 and .com cost $7.06 both including ICANN fees. Don't forget the support the registrar has to provide for you, and the platform development, upgrade and maintenance cost.

You are getting a decent deal for .com but definitely not for .net. I would expect to pay about $5.75 in the best scenario.

what is your experience in domain businesses?

You do know that ResellOne is actually selling BELOW COST (as kind of a loss leader for their dedicated servers sales at the Planet), right? They used to sell at $5 a piece a few years back when they were still an OpenSRS reseller.

we do not look at the .com's individually, but at the business as a whole. And from that perspective resell.biz is very profitable.

Nope D is not saying that in its entirety, basically because they but .NET cheaper than the price they sell for, and they pay a little more for .COM than they sell for, one kind of equals the other out.

It is a numbers game at the end of the day. And if they pick up other business like dedi servers etc along the way that helps too.

That's right, our first contact with uk2group was with resell.biz, we use it.

We are now purchasing dedicated servers to their midphase/10tb brand, we are spending more than 4000$/month in dedicated servers from them.

We are getting good deals in both domains and dedicated servers, they are getting profit, everybody wins ;-)

Frankly tell me as how you manage at UK Group.

Domains in Logicboxes Panel and Hosting, Servers and VPS in some different control panel. need to do separate billing for servers and domains.

that's not a problem, i also have accounts at other companies also, it's not a problem having 2 different sites when you have to manage about a dozen providers

So, you mean to say you are making a loss on the domains and trying to gain customers for hosting and cover up for the loss incurred? The real money in the domains business is from the gain of customers and if you not seeing it and not planning few years ahead then you might be better off in some other business.

Hi

dfordomains starts 7.16.. i hope

You seem to be a reseller of ResellerClub. Which one is cheaper? RC or DforDomains?

Yes, we are a resellerclub customer, RC is cheaper if you meet their slabs..

DForDomains are they ICANN Accredited Registrar? I can't see their name in Accredited Registrar list.

DforDomains is Web Werks

I would not recommend ResellerClub as there retail arm (answerable.com) is selling domains at very compatative price's, which is very bothering, such practice would eventually put other RC resellers on a risk of being out of bussiness, and then Answerable.com can take over the domain name being registered by us, I don't think any reseller of this size should not involve in such low priced practise.
This is sad

This is sad

Every reseller business needs to have retail store cause many a times reseller goes out of business or not contactable or not responding etc... so need someone who can take care of customers of resellers.

Ethically Reseller Registrar should never approach your customer directly, if anyhow customer come to know then they can divert it to retail arm.

Ashok - the concern here is of the evil practive of 'RC' to have such low retail price's through its retail arm Answerable.com, it leaves almost no scope for resellers doing bussiness with resellerclub themselves, on the other hand Enom here is playing a more responsible role of pricing its retail service of selling domains names @ $29.00-USD.
I hope you get the point in here.

That's not a problem. Every reseller should have specific nic/target customers.

Could not agree more, especially when they are selling a .COM at USD $9.49 and you then see that on the RC site the lowest Tier is $9.49 to buy domains and you have to deposit $199 for it.

Hopefully this is why you notice on our end user site it shows $29.00 for a .com.

You will also notice on the NEO main site (end user) you cant actually order/pay for anything either.

And for the peops that will ask the question, we have the end user retail site because if a customer wants to find out who the root registrar is, it isnt hard too.

Chris

BasicCX - And what if a reseller's "specific nic/target customers" happens to be the World (just about every one) like goDaddy :o)
Any ways as I mentioned earlier, same is not the case with Enom (they act more responsiblly) this shows why it is leaps ahead then RC.

Answerable is not easily accessible by anyone. even i agree on view of having Higher price on retail site.

Answerable is not easily accessible by anyone.Mind explaining why?

I dont agree with skypn / netearth ....

Typically how would a end customer figure about the registrar their domain is registered with, they will do a whois lookup (Believe me 70-80% of the customer dont know about it nor do they care as long as all their service is working fine) (the 5-10% who are big would typically move from you in most case once they have a large count directly under a registrar to have that much more control or become a Registrar themselves, like netearth has done.

For the technically savvy guys who figures out whois lookup would see the below on all the doamin registered through resellerclub

Registrar: DIRECTI INTERNET SOLUTIONS PVT. LTD. D/B/A PUBLICDOMAINREGISTRY.COM
Whois Server: whois.PublicDomainRegistry.com
Referral URL: http://www.PublicDomainRegistry.com

and when they go to http://www.PublicDomainRegistry.com, their is no way they can register a domain from there.... and if they click on the pricing tab i.e., http://publicdomainregistry.com/pricing/ they will see the pricing as $35 for a .com which i far higher than what enom shows as per skypn and also higher than what netearth has mentioned a couple of post above.

So there is no way a normal customer would move away from you if you provide them with good enough service.

I have been with resellerclub with 6+ year and i have never had any reason to shift from them nor have i ever been threated by the presence of answerable. There are 100s of registrar and resellers who sells at lower price than me, so does that mean i have to shut my shop thinking that all my customers would shift to them.

Its a competitive world and we all have to carve a niche for ourselves and i firmly believe if i give good support and service to my customer they will not ditch me.

So i will highly recommend ResellerClub for people wanting to be a reseller of domains.

Just my 2c

SuyashI disagree with you completely. You don't get the point. It has got nothing to do with RC being "private labelled" or whatsoever. It is the fact that they are competing business with their resellers, especially when selling at a very low rate, which is only achievable by their resellers after high deposits. The best example will be SSL certificates. IIRC, they are selling at the price which their resellers obtain after $5999 deposit.

The biggest joke is Resellerclub recommends selling Digital Certificates for the $69 and $119, but under answerable.com it sells for $29 and $49 which only a reseller with receipts more than $11,999 can compete.

Can you compare Globalsign with Thawte?

So i will highly recommend ResellerClub for people wanting to be a reseller of domains.I have been using RC for the last 5-6 years with large number of domains and never had any problems with their system :agree:

So there is no way a normal customer would move away from you if you provide them with good enough service.Yes, from my experience a customer would hardly move even if they find out that you are reselling RC. Normally customers are really lazy to move domains here and there unless if you provide really bad support etc.

even this applicable to QualiSpace and ConnectReseller

QS is retail arm where as CR is reseller arm of QuantumPages.

QS sells domains at $9.49 and CR sells at $7.29

i am new to reseller and dont now much about this....from where i have taken reseller account they give domain for 6$ with no deposits...

i am new to reseller and dont now much about this....from where i have taken reseller account they give domain for 6$ with no deposits...

Hmmm $6 you might be hard pushed as that is under cost of the registries let alone adding ICANN fee etc.

i am new to reseller and dont now much about this....from where i have taken reseller account they give domain for 6$ with no deposits...

Really????? Which company is that?

its local company...and just give this to local people and if u pay through credit card they charge $8.99.
i have registered 8 domain for $6 for my clients last week...

which TLD extensions? for .net it would be possible. maybe some local ccTLD?

registrar cost for .com is 6.86 + 0.20 = $7.06

how is it possible to sale at low price

kindly share the company name

Do you mean they are providing domains at $6 to residents of Pakistan?

exactly.it is for Pakistanis....

Enom Reseller :)

no where i found domain is provided at $6

Even I did not find anywhere that Pakistanis are provided domains at $6.

you can generate a ticket and dont let them known that you r not pakistani...and ask them
just write this...

"i want to know about the Rs. 500/- per domain package. when this package is going to end."


then you can get the reply
$1 = Rs 84
Rs. 500 = $5.95

Maybe they are advertising in local IT magazines about the offer.

yes.........they advertise in spider magazine...(spider.tm)

Even I did not find anywhere that Pakistanis are provided domains at $6.

I am sure that they cannot offer at this price if it is not a temporary discount. Because the ICANN fee is more than that.

Like always, they might be trying to gain more and more hosting customers from Pakistan from where they will cover up the loss and make profit. They clearly want to be one of the biggest hosting companies in Pakistan.

nexus technologies is one of the biggest hosting company in Pakistan...

May by this is temporary discount but i am registering domain at $6 from last month...

Seems they are not gaining much from this. Check http://www.webhosting.info/webhosts/reports/gain_loss/NEXUS.NET.PK/. However, it is still ranked second in Pakistan.

good informatio prashant

We just got diverted on nexus.

anyways who is the Cheap Registrar for Reselling Domains?

ConnectReseller > 7.29
ResellerClb > 8.99
Enom > 8.95

and is there is any reseller who didnt demand advance deposits to activate account?

if registrar does not demand any advance than there will be no difference between end customer and reseller prices

i strongly recommend that registrar should charge annually or one time or advance usable deposit.

They have a flat rate for all. No reseller slab and also it does not seem they are providing anything else than domains and how do reseller's earn if the rates are the same? It also means that though you do a huge volume of domains with them, they are still getting the same price and that too the price can increase as the current .com prices are less than the actual cost to the registrar.

Great work Prashant :agree: thx a lot man for the info. all it needs is a little bit of study.
I just failed to find any related information about the company on webhosting.info ??

Even I was wondering if they are really ICANN accredited as they don't appear in WH.info. However. I found the company listed in ICANN's registrar list.

Hello,

I'm currently doing $16k in domains with resellerclub but the bulk price that I'm getting with them is $7.69 for .Net/Com domains.



With $16k, I wouldn't be surprised if you could work out some sort of special pricing with http://NetEarthOne.com that could get you close to your goal.

Greed can kill a business. Think about what might happen going from a stable provider to one you have no clue about. Is it worth the extra grand per year?

:) true.... thats why i ask anyone using this...

Even, I agree with you. Anyways, you will be saving only a few cents per domain and that too if you don't have a very large volume of domains, then you might really not save much. It is better to select a company which is either a registrar since at least more than 2 years or has a proven track record and experience in the hosting industry.

Is resellone.net a ThePlanet Company?

i think its not merged in to ThePlanet after merging of ev1.net as ThePlanet has got his own ICANN accreditation.

The signature says www.ev1servers.net and it is redirecting to ThePlanet. If resellone.net is not a ThePlanet company, then the only possibility is that the document on the website is old and not current. Another point which proves that it may be an old document is that the prices mentioned here are lesser than the registry cost and also there is no notification from ICANN recently for price rise.

seems resellone guys are sleeping.

My resell price is $6.59(register for the first year) and $7.47(renewal) for gTLD domains(COM/NET/ORG)..CN domains is $0.44(register for the first year) and $5.27(renewal).No advance deposit needed.No whois provicy.The company provides the price is a core resell of Hichina.com--one of the biggest domain and hosting business in China.And the price is not temporary.Actually the price is permanent for almost 1 years.

What do u mean?:eek:

How is, "Actually the price is permanent for almost 1 years.", 'permanent? Only 1 year?

Perhaps you meant that the price has already lasted for one year? If you meant that the price is permanent and will last for at least one year, then that is not what I would call 'permanent'. Short lived more like.

So I was referring to that anomaly when I made my joke. :stickout:

Nevermind. ;)

I see.I'm sorry but my wors is misleading to u."permanent" just means the price is almost fixed because there are no rise or down since mid 2008.

Hi freer. Thanks for clarifying that.

Best wishes.

Nothing is permanent in the world and applies to domain prices. If the registries change the prices, then the registrars and resellers have to change the prices accordingly.

Good Talk till now.

you will see lot of article here about resell.biz support issue. and even they are using resellerclub system, they dont have their own system

one more question which is the cheapest domain...as i have read somewhere that .info can be registered for $5.45/year...

if you are talking about the cheapest gTLD, that would be .net. Having said that the .info registry runs regular promotions and you can find them for as low as $1.49..

If you also consider ccTLDs then .cn would be the cheapest if im not mistaken..

please also tell me the registrar for the registration of these domains.....

i am looking all the domains which are available..

.info cheaper than .net

also tell me the registrars

I don't understand if the registry cost of .net domains is less, then why are companies like Resellerclub and Connect Reseller are selling .net domains at the same price as .com.

i think they can get profit from those domains to compensate there profits from .com domains

I would put it this way. They are probably losing out on the customers who may register .net domains.

Elaboration :-

For eg. you were a reseller of ConnectReseller/NetearthOne/etc.. and you would want to compete with the like's of Name.com, you could never do that as .Net would let you down (most popular TLD after .com) because you get .net at an amplified cost, therefore you just fail to cash on the cost advantage coming from the registry.
Poor us :(

godaddy:.net is expensive than .info(Register&Renewal)

GoDaddy is actually expensive compared to others.

GD is not for Resellers, its for Customers

My Freind :),

If you have good number of domains then you can do bargain with registrar for cheap TLDs

I can see Wild West Domains sells domains at cheap rates to the Pro resellers and the Super Resellers. In fact, it is selling to super resellers at lesser rate than the cost price. However, for the basic reseller, the domain prices are slightly higher.

I tried lot of time to get prices of WWD. if you have kindly share with us.

Go to the WWD website and under each Reseller Plan Drop down menu, select the Plan details. Next, click on Wild West vs the Rest and you will get the price details. For Super Reseller, you have to click on Commissions to find out the cost for the Super Reseller.

Really :beer: that's kind of kool, but what can be considered as GOOD number's here.

Hey thx Friend.

Really :beer: that's kind of kool, but what can be considered as GOOD number's here.

Hey thx Friend.

yea this is the main question i have currently only few domains:(

yea this is the main question i have currently only few domains:(

Here I would say good number of domains should be equal to a few thousand domains.

Here I would say good number of domains should be equal to a few thousand domains.

to have few thousands domains....i think it require few decades:D

Really :beer: that's kind of kool, but what can be considered as GOOD number's here.

Hey thx Friend.if you need to bargain with a larger registrar you really need to have large number of domains in hand, I would say around 30K sales and you might need show progress such as a commitment of 200-500 domains sales per month, in the other hand I find registrars like NetearthOne are more flexible and easy to deal with :)

to have few thousands domains....i think it require few decades:D

I second that. To have a few thousand domains, you actually don't need decades if you have a proper marketing plan and have knowledge of domain selling. In fact all the top registrars and hosting companies in the world are not even a decade old except a few.

hope so...i wish that in 1 year i have atleast 100-200 domains...

It is quite easy if you have look at the global market than the local market. I can see that your country is far behind the other countries like US and India in terms of internet users and hence if you partner with some global company like Resellerclub.com, ConnectReseller.com, Enom or GoDaddy, you get lots of benefits and exposure to the global market. In this way, you stand a chance to register a few thousand domains easily in a year.

yea Pakistan is far behind in internet users...
i have currently a reseller account with local hosting company...
and looking for cheap reseller then the currently i have...

Javed, what I will suggest you is, don't just go for the cheapest, go for quality and the level of control you will have over your services.

Best options for you is to go for a reputed and stable registrar who is economical too, it will be better if the registrar is from your own country, have a look at http://www.paknic.com/reseller/ they are from Pakistan and are ICANN Accredited, I am not sure about their reputation so you will have to check that yourself. Also keeping domains and hosting separate helps in difficult times.

While going for companies like Enom, RC or NEO you will be paying transaction fee too that the CC processor will be charging, so add that to your cost, while if its a local company I think you can do bank transfer that won't charge any transaction fee.

Lay a solid foundation to your business and you will see stable success, also note that clients looking for cheapest deals will not stay with you for long, whereas clients looking for quality product and quality support will stay with you for long time. Acquiring new customer costs a lot, whereas retaining them does not cost much but needs lot of hard work. Clients looking for cheapest deals would not allow you to earn much whereas clients looking for quality product and quality support will pay you enough to earn a handsome amount.

So think again about your business plan.

dont you think $9.95 is too high???

$9.95 is indeed high for a reseller.

dont you think $9.95 is too high???

$9.95 is not a reseller price, but a customer price. Who is offering this price?

I would say Vinayak is right. Mudassir can try out Paknic who has a good reseller price. However, according to Webhosting.info, Paknic has only 1251 domains registered so far which is a less number. You really need to push yourselves and sell domains to a wide number of customers in order to increase the number of domains in your kitty. RC and ConnectReseller are better choices as both provide a plan which allows signing up of Resellers under you and they can in turn sign up Resellers under them. This increases the chance of gaining more and more domains without much efforts in marketing. RC is one of the oldest and hence is more reliable, however, I have found ConnectReseller providing more sophisticated infrastructure and plans for domain resellers.

paknic offer reseller price of $9.95....

what about resell.biz??

Javed I can see "com $7.65"

http://www.paknic.com/reseller/

You must be looking at Group 1 (retail)

You are wrong. Paknic offers $7.65. The one you are checking is the Retail or the end user price.

but the setup cost is $99..

Give me the name of one Registrar which offers reseller signup without initial payment.

resell.biz

Give me the name of one Registrar which offers reseller signup without initial payment.

paknic.com charge setup fee not initial deposit

Give me the name of one Registrar which offers reseller signup without initial payment.

Most of Logicboxes Reseller Provides like as follow:

resell.biz
reseller.dotcomgenie.com

i would suggest you to go with company who has their own platform like:

ConnectReseller
Enom
ResellerClub
WWD

i think i must go for connect reseller as they activate account for $99

Good, ConnectReseller Seems most Discussed Company now a days in WHT

i think i must go for connect reseller as they activate account for $99

Good to know you have finally come to a decision.

its worth to pay $99 at CR and that is even usable deposits. they are comming soon with API and Privacy Protection.

ConnectReseller - Domain pricing Offer closes on October 7th, 2009.
Then it will be $7.89/yr.

So, does that mean price will increase to $7.89 for existing resellers too?

You can go with WWD or a reseller of them (they can be cheaper), you have privacy there.

So, does that mean price will increase to $7.89 for existing resellers too?

ConnectReseller - Domain pricing Offer closes on October 7th, 2009.

With the competition heating up in the domains market, you can expect surprises. Remember, RC is introducing promo from 1st October. I am sure ConnectReseller will try something new again.

connect reseller make $7.29 default price also after 7 october....

which is better connect reseller or netearth?

connect reseller make $7.29 default price also after 7 october....

Hey!!! From where did you get the news? They have not yet updated the website yet.

I finally found out. They have updated their blog. I would say between ConnectReseller and Netearth, ConnectReseller looks more promising.

http://resources.connectreseller.com/newsletters/cr_newprices_web.html

Pay attention to the line:
until the respective registries announce a hike in price

Also do check if those rates are for new registrations only or also applies to renewals and transfers.

This is quite right according to me. If the registries hike the prices, obviously any company will think of increasing the prices. It depends on how much the prices increase. And they have mentioned it is for registration/renewal and transfers.

Do you guys know about the Verisign deal with ICANN.

Last year also registrars launched similar promos in this very month.

So do some research before taking the plunge.

Enom is still the largest and most popular among these companies though being costlier, ever wondered why.

Do you guys know about the Verisign deal with ICANN.

Seems they are keen to have you as a reseller. Why not try to register a few domains and test them? Anyways, you don't have to lose much.

If you look at the ConnectReseller.com's announcement, they have not mentioned it as an extended promo, but the permanent pricing till the registries hike the prices. I think if at all the registries reduce the prices in future (which seems impossible though), then the prices should also reduce.

connect reseller know that verisign increases the prices....and than they announce the domain price of $7.29.......
it means next year whem 7% increase in domain price thwn they change the price

If you will see prices had been increased in the month of October every year. Although I am not sure if the prices will increase this month or not. But if they do? Also like with RC promo prices are valid for this month again this indicates that prices may increase soon.

Verisign notifies 6 months in advance for any price hike and still they have not notified. So, even if they announce it now, the prices will be increased after 6 months. So, till then why not enjoy the low prices?

yes, that's true. none of registrars has announced about increase in price and as per Registry Registrar Agreement Registry needs to give registrar 6 months in advance about price increase.

i think due to market condition and new TLDs launch may have stoped registry to rise their prices.

Good info. I never knew that.

So who all we have as Cheap, Reliable and Experienced Registrars for us to review?

Registrars with own platform:

http://www.connectreseller.com - $7.29
http://www.enom.com - $8.95
http://www.resellerclub.com - $9.49
http://www.opensrs.com $10.04
http://www.nicline.com $7.99
http://internet.bs/ $6.95 > Selling at Loss Need to check reliability.

Onlinenic.com $8.89

Onlinenic.com $8.89

Priceless, I assume you remember the problems people were having getting domains out of OnlineNic and the $33 million dollars awarded to Verizon?

yes, that's true. i will never recommend OnlineNic and i'll suggest to resellers of OnlineNic to take out their domains from them ASAP before they collapse.

yes, that's true. i will never recommend OnlineNic and i'll suggest to resellers of OnlineNic to take out their domains from them ASAP before they collapse.

But Why collapse :confused: hope you don't mind elaborating on the stress.

opensrs.com are too expensive...

Yes, OpenSRS clearly mention on his website as $3 as domain management fee.

Please do not be influenced by the pricing alone (I request):-
1) Connect reseller does not have an API.
2) Does not support Billing script Platform (whmcs, etc..), in case you plan to offer additional services of your choice & flex better control over things, you will need this.
3) Connectreseller, is the youngest company out of the lot mentioned above, we know at-least Intrnet.bs is more than 6 yrs. in business. Now who's reliability is a question-mark here ?
4) All that 'connectreseller' offers is cheap pricing, but any body who beats them with even better (cheaper) pricing is looked towards suspicion. May I ask WHY ??
5) ConnectReeller is so much in a hurry that they launched their services without an API, without offering 'Private Whois service', (this too is in the coming). Make's me think is their a financial crunch, again reliability is my concern here.
6) Try talking to their support people, they leave you several times in between chat-sessions (now is this professionalism), recently in the threads here, some-body mentioned them not even understanding proper English.

I would not say ConnectReseller is not a good company, just that I find them rushing into things in a little immature & hasty fashion. Though a new organization is a welcome in the business, as it helps in de-monopolize others.

But no denying, they have to go a very long way to become an preferred partner of choice, after all its my bread-n-butter too at stake :cool:

Well its just my take towards thing, watch-out for your own :agree:

Kenz.

what about the parent company of connect reseller "QuantumPages", which is working since 1998..

what about the parent company of connect reseller "QuantumPages", which is working since 1998..

Well lemme answer it this way, lets say I was born in the year '1972' does that help in any manner, as I just started working 6-8 months back ;)

I am not against the company (ConnectReseller), but simply laid my reasons-of-concerns, though it looks promising, it definitely needs better preparations rather than rushing into things in a hasty fashion :stickout:

Again, Please do not be influenced by price alone, there are so many basic features lacking as of now, Look out for your self.


Regards,
Kenz

i am not in favour of connect reseller...know that they just launch few months back :agree:but let see connect reseller in another senario....

suppose your parents start business in 1972 and they got their business established...and you joined then 6-8 months back...than whats the influance of ur parents position on u?;)

Mudassir (no offense just a joke) its like Zardari got power because of Benazir Bhutto. Well jokes apart Connect Reseller is a new setup by experienced people so you can give them a try if you want to be their beta tester and if you are ready to sacrifice some features for price.

Even if Connect Reseller in itself is a young setup, I think they are going to stay and are going to improve and add features. There is nothing wrong to get associated with a promising young setup.

But do a thorough check if they have great support and do not have stupid policies, also check how secure your domains will be with them.

exactly zardari got power becoz of benazir bhutto...and connect reseller may be get power becoz of parent company...

does any one have idea as at what price we get domains from rcom?
