Dot FR Domain Names

The Dot FR country-specific extension is the most widespread one among French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a great choice to connect with tens of millions of WWW users, since a .FR domain is more likely to have higher 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 usually use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an ideal means for you to reach them.

The top-level domain name extension was created in 1986, but registrations were restricted to individuals and entities located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. In the present day, a dot FR domain can be ordered by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 active domains, the dot FR domain name extension is among the most widely used country-code domains. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you would like to purchase a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be operational almost instantly. AFNIC, the Registry organization that administrates this TLD, has specific terms about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain have 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 firms, 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 tool – you’ll be able to alter the WHOIS contact info at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
