Dot FR Domains

The .FR country-specific top-level domain name extension is the most widespread one amongst French speakers and if you possess a website in French, such a domain name will be a good choice to get through to tens of millions of web users, considering the fact that a dot FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with considerable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a number of 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 top-level domain extension was started in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and entities situated in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. These Days, a .FR domain can be secured by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2.5 million active registrations, the .FR top-level domain name extension is one of the most widely used country-code domains. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past several years.

If you would like to buy a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will go online more or less instantly. AFNIC, the Registry organization that controls this TLD, has precise restrictions about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain should 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, in particular 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 alter the WHOIS details at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
