.FR Domains

The Dot FR country-specific domain name extension is the most widespread one among speakers of French and if you have a website in French, such a domain name will be a good choice to get in touch with tens of millions of WWW users, taking into account that a dot FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a number of 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 excellent way for you to get through to them.

The TLD was started in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and entities based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. At present, a dot FR domain can be purchased by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2.5 million functioning domains, the .FR TLD is among the most widely used country-specific extensions. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you wish to obtain a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be working nearly instantly. AFNIC, the Registry that administrates this TLD, has special prerequisites about certain records that the name servers of a .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 hosting firms, mainly 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 tool – you’ll be able to change the WHOIS contact details at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
