Dot FR Domain Names

The Dot FR country-code top-level extension is the most widespread one among French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain name will be a wonderful choice to connect with tens of millions of web users, taking into consideration that a dot FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries often use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is a great means for you to reach them.

The top-level domain was set up in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and corporations located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. Nowadays, a .FR domain can be ordered by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over two and a half million active domains, the .FR top-level domain extension is one of the most widespread country-code domains. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

If you wish to purchase a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will go online nearly instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry organization that handles this TLD, has special requirements 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, in particular 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 change the WHOIS contact details at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
