Dot FR Domain Names

The .FR country-specific domain name extension is the most widespread one amongst French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain name will be an excellent choice to get through to tens of millions of web users, given that a .FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a lot of the 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 a perfect means for you to get in touch with them them.

The top-level domain extension was started in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and businesses based 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 over two and a half million active domains, the .FR extension is amongst the most popular country-specific domains. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

If you would like to register a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go live almost immediately. AFNIC, the Registry organization that handles this TLD, has special requirements about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain should 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, especially 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 interface – you’ll be able to update the WHOIS details at any time, to create and to edit Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
