Dot FR Domains

The .FR country-code top-level domain extension is the most widespread one amongst French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a perfect choice to connect with tens of millions of web users, since a dot FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with considerable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a number of countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries frequently 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 TLD was set up in 1986, but registrations were restricted to individuals and firms based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. At present, a .FR domain can be bought by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 working domains, the dot FR top-level domain extension is among the most widespread country-code extensions. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past several years.

If you would like to reserve a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will go online nearly immediately. AFNIC, the Registry that controls this TLD, has precise 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 web hosting providers, 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 interface – you’ll be able to change the WHOIS info at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
