Dot FR Domains

The Dot FR country-code extension is the most widespread one amongst French speakers and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be an ideal choice to reach tens of millions of web users, considering that a .FR domain is more likely to have higher French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with sizeable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries usually use French electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is a wonderful means for you to get through to them.

The top-level domain was set up in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and corporations located in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. In the present day, a .FR domain can be ordered by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2.5 million active registrations, the dot FR TLD is amongst the most widespread country-specific extensions. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past several years.

If you would like to book a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go live almost instantly. AFNIC, the Registry organization that controls this TLD, has precise rules about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain need to 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 firms, in particular 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 – you’ll be able to change the WHOIS information at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
