.FR Domain Names

The .FR country-code domain is the most popular one amongst French speakers and if you possess a website in French, such a domain will be an ideal choice to contact tens of millions of World Wide Web users, because a dot FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries 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 email providers and search online for French websites, so this is a great way for you to get through to them.

The TLD was established in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and companies situated in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. In the present day, a dot FR domain can be reserved by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2.5 million active registrations, the dot FR top-level domain name extension is amongst the most widespread country-specific extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

If you wish to order a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be working nearly instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry that administrates this TLD, has precise restrictions about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain need to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not have any problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting providers, particularly resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a dot FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel tool – you’ll be able to update the WHOIS info at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
