.FR Domain Registration

The Dot FR country-specific domain name extension is the most widely used one amongst French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain name will be an excellent choice to get through to tens of millions of net users, taking into account that a .FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with significant French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a lot of the 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 ideal means for you to get through to them.

The top-level domain extension was created in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and companies located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. At present, a .FR domain can be ordered by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 active registrations, the dot FR top-level domain extension is one of the most widely used country-code domains. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you would like to get a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be operational nearly instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry that controls this TLD, has specific prerequisites about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain need 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 providers, particularly 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 – 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.
