Dot FR Domains

The Dot FR country-code domain is the most widely used one among French speakers and if you own a website in French, such a domain name will be an excellent choice to get in touch with tens of millions of WWW users, given that a .FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with substantial 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 frequently use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an excellent means for you to get in touch with them them.

The domain extension was started in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and entities based in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. Today, a dot FR domain can be purchased by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2.5 million active domains, the dot FR TLD is one of the most widespread country-specific extensions. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you would like to grab a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be operational almost right away. AFNIC, the Registry that manages this TLD, has specific restrictions 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 problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting providers, mainly 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 interface – you’ll be able to edit the WHOIS information at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
