.FR Domain Names

The Dot FR country-specific extension is the most popular one amongst speakers of French and if you own a website in French, such a domain name will be a good choice to reach tens of millions of net users, given that a dot FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with large French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and lots of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries frequently use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is a great chance for you to reach them.

The domain name extension was set up in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and firms based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. These Days, a .FR domain can be bought by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2.5 million working domains, the dot FR domain name extension is one of the most popular country-specific domains. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you would like to obtain a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will go live nearly instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry organization that handles this TLD, has special rules about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain must 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, above all resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a .FR domain name with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel – you’ll be able to update the WHOIS information at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
