Dot FR Domains

The Dot FR country-code Top-Level Domain is the most widely used one among speakers of French and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a good choice to get through to tens of millions of WWW users, because a .FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with significant French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and quite a few of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries often use French electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is an excellent way for you to get through to them.

The top-level extension was established in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and entities located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. At present, a .FR domain can be secured by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2.5 million active domains, the dot FR top-level extension is amongst the most popular country-specific extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

If you want to obtain a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be working nearly instantly. AFNIC, the Registry that controls this TLD, has specific terms about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain have 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 web hosting companies, especially resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a .FR domain name with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel interface – you’ll be able to edit the WHOIS contact info at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
