Dot FR Domain Names

The .FR country-code top-level domain name extension is the most popular one among speakers of French and if you possess a website in French, such a domain will be a wonderful choice to get through to tens of millions of WWW users, having in mind that a dot FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine positions. 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 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 was created in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and businesses situated in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. At present, a dot FR domain can be bought by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2.5 million active registrations, the .FR TLD 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 would like to acquire a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be operational nearly right away. AFNIC, the Registry that handles this TLD, has precise prerequisites about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain need to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not encounter any problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting companies, 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 tool – you’ll be able to update the WHOIS contact information at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
