.FR Domain Names

The Dot FR country-code Top-Level Domain is the most widely used one among French speakers and if you possess a website in French, such a domain will be a top choice to contact tens of millions of WWW users, as a .FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states 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 electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is an ideal way for you to get in touch with them them.

The domain name extension was established in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and firms based in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. These Days, a .FR domain can be secured by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over two and a half million active registrations, the dot FR extension is one of the most widely used country-code extensions. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past several years.

If you want to reserve a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go live more or less immediately. AFNIC, the Registry that administrates this TLD, has specific prerequisites about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain should 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 companies, 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 modify the WHOIS info at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
