Dot FR Domains

The .FR country-code domain is the most widespread one among French speakers and if you possess a website in French, such a domain will be an ideal choice to contact tens of millions of WWW users, as a .FR domain is more likely to have higher French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with large French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and quite a few of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries often use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is a great means for you to get through to them.

The top-level domain was started in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and businesses situated in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Today, a dot FR domain can be booked by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over two and a half million active domains, the dot FR top-level extension is among the most widespread country-code domains. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past several years.

If you would like to acquire a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be operational more or less instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry that handles this TLD, has special prerequisites 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 problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many hosting companies, especially 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 edit the WHOIS information at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
