Dot FR Domains

The .FR country-code domain is the most widespread one among speakers of French and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be a perfect choice to contact tens of millions of WWW users, taking into consideration that a .FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries regularly 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 domain name extension was created in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and corporations located in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Today, a .FR domain can be registered by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2.5 million active domains, the dot FR top-level domain extension is one of the most popular country-code domains. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you would like to get a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be working more or less instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry organization that administrates this TLD, has specific terms about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain should have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not have any difficulties 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 interface – you’ll be able to edit the WHOIS contact info at any time, to create and to edit Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
