.FR Domains

The .FR country-code extension is the most popular one amongst French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain name will be an excellent choice to contact tens of millions of web users, because a dot FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine standings. 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 usually use French electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is a wonderful chance for you to get through to them.

The domain extension was launched in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and firms based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Nowadays, a dot FR domain can be booked by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than two and a half million active domains, the .FR top-level extension is one of the most widespread country-specific domains. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you wish to get a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go online almost immediately. AFNIC, the Registry organization that handles this TLD, has special restrictions about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain need 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 firms, above all 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 tool – you’ll be able to edit the WHOIS contact details at any time, to create and to modify Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
