I'd rather say that's you haven't quite touched into the hosting
business the last 7 years. Tucows provides a domain registration and
SSL certificate reselling service; domains that have registrar set to
Tucows are resold via Tucows. Sorta the same thing GoDaddy does with
their WildWestDomains.com service.
