    Enom has a reseller program . Becoming a registrar is expensive.

    But it's a hard business and you should have cheap prices because there are so many domain registration sites...

    Bribeme is right, I don't think any one here would be able to even provide a ball park figure to you!

    You'd be looking at around 20k give or take.

    A reseller account with someone is as little as free. PM me if you want one.

    I looked at this the other day just to see what it would cost to be a CERTIFIED registrar.

    Initial request for application: $2,000 NON-Refundable.

    If approved: $2,000, plus $2,000 each year to renew, plus 20¢ per domain registered.

    Finally, you must have, and be able to prove that you have LIQUID ASSETS of no less than $70,000 on hand at all times.

    Don't know why the $70K, but they make the rules. (ICANN)

    u can buy Domains at cheap & fr best service from Godaddy.com even though they hv poor cutomer care.

    When u purchase a hosting space ask ur ADMIN for Nameservers or IP or CNAME.

    & enetr those details in ur Domain ADMIN cp e.g. com from godaddy.com

    There are loads of cheap reseller sites out there. I know dotcomgenie has one.

    For eNom, WildWestDomains, and ResellerClub, a deposit is required.

    If you ask your host, they might give you a free domain reseller account.

    However, becoming an official ICANN accredited registrar is not recommended because it requires a very large nonrefundable investment.
