.FR Domains

The Dot FR country-specific extension is the most widespread one amongst French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain name will be a great choice to get in touch with tens of millions of Internet users, because a .FR domain is more likely to have higher French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with large French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a lot of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries usually use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an ideal chance for you to contact them them.

The top-level extension was created in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and companies situated in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. These Days, a .FR domain can be purchased by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over two and a half million active domains, the .FR TLD is amongst the most popular country-specific extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you wish to reserve a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be operational almost right away. AFNIC, the Registry organization that manages this TLD, has precise conditions about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain need to 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, in particular 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 – you’ll be able to update the WHOIS information at any time, to create and to modify Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
