.FR

Dot FR Domain Names

The .FR country-code top-level extension is the most popular one among French speakers and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be an ideal choice to connect with tens of millions of World Wide Web users, because a .FR domain is more likely to have higher French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with significant French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries often use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an excellent chance for you to contact them them.

The top-level domain extension was created in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and corporations located in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Today, a dot FR domain can be ordered by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 active registrations, the .FR top-level domain extension is one of the most widely used country-code extensions. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past several years.

If you wish to obtain a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go live more or less instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry that handles this TLD, has precise conditions about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain have to 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 firms, above all resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a .FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel interface – you’ll be able to change the WHOIS information at any time, to create and to alter Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
