Dot FR Domain Names

The Dot FR country-code top-level domain extension is the most widespread one among French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a perfect choice to get in touch with tens of millions of web users, due to the fact that a dot FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with large French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and lots of the 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 perfect way for you to contact them them.

The top-level domain was established in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and corporations 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 2.5 million working domains, the .FR top-level extension is amongst the most widely used country-specific extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

If you want to acquire a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go online nearly right away. AFNIC, the Registry that controls this TLD, has special conditions about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain must 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 – you’ll be able to modify the WHOIS contact information at any time, to create and to edit Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
