Dot FR Domain Registration

The .FR country-specific top-level domain extension is the most widespread one among speakers of French and if you possess a website in French, such a domain name will be a perfect choice to get in touch with tens of millions of WWW users, having in mind that a .FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with sizeable 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 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 domain extension was set up in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and corporations based in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. Nowadays, a .FR domain can be booked by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2.5 million working domains, the .FR domain extension is among the most popular country-specific extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

If you wish to grab a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go live more or less immediately. AFNIC, the Registry organization that manages this TLD, has special rules 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 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 .FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel – you’ll be able to change the WHOIS contact information at any time, to create and to alter Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
