Dot FR Domains

The .FR country-specific top-level domain extension is the most widespread one amongst speakers of French and if you possess a website in French, such a domain name will be a great choice to get in touch with tens of millions of World Wide Web users, because a .FR domain is more likely to have higher French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with significant French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries often use French electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is a great means for you to get in touch with them them.

The top-level domain name extension was launched in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and businesses located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. In the present day, a .FR domain can be booked by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over two and a half million active registrations, the dot FR domain extension is amongst the most widely used country-code domains. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

If you wish to acquire a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be operational almost instantly. AFNIC, the Registry that manages this TLD, has special requirements about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain should have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not encounter any difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many hosting firms, above all resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a dot FR domain name with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel tool – you’ll be able to update the WHOIS information at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
