Dot FR Domain Names

The Dot FR country-specific top-level extension is the most widespread one among French speakers and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be a great choice to get through to tens of millions of WWW users, because a .FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with sizeable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries regularly use French electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is an ideal chance for you to reach them.

The domain extension was established in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and businesses located in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Nowadays, a .FR domain can be ordered by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over two and a half million active registrations, the dot FR top-level domain extension is among the most popular country-specific extensions. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you would like to get a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be operational nearly instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry organization that manages this TLD, has special terms about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain must have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not come across any problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many hosting providers, above all resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a .FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel tool – you’ll be able to modify the WHOIS contact information at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
