Increase Profits by Expanding Into Domain Name Consultation and Hosting

If you sell website design services, selling domains and hosting is another way to make money. You should let customers buy their own domain and find a host if they choose, but selling domain names with a small markup allows you to charge for domain name consultation services. If you have clients that cannot create a simple WordPress blog or they don't know the difference between a domain and a subdomain, then they probably don't understand what makes one domain name better than another domain name. You can explain that a short, easy-to-spell domain name is essential. Since all of the three letter .com names have been taken, you're going to have to go back and forth to find an acceptable domain name that is available. You should get paid for your time.
Hosting is another area where you can make additional money. Offer to host the site, set up email addresses, schedule backups and offer an hour of support each month for a set fee. This gives you recurring revenue, but if you're making good money as a website designer, it may take up too much of your time. You could set up everything in the client's name, offer training and consultation services, and then hand everything off to the client. Be sure to insist the client changes his or her passwords after the handoff. This way, you'll never have to worry about expiring domains or clients that go into a hosting account and start changing things.
You will always find clients who have no interest in doing anything for themselves and if you want to buy their domain and host their site, fine. Spell out what happens when they don't pay for domain renewal or hosting in the contract. There are clients who will ignore your invoices until their website goes down, therefore, always bill for these costs in advance.
