Dot FR Domains

The .FR country-specific domain name extension is the most popular one amongst French speakers and if you own a website in French, such a domain name will be a perfect choice to get through to tens of millions of web users, as a dot FR domain is more likely to have higher French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with considerable 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 email providers and search online for French websites, so this is a wonderful chance for you to contact them them.

The top-level extension was established in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and companies located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. At present, a dot FR domain can be obtained by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2.5 million functioning domains, the .FR domain name extension is among the most widespread country-specific domains. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you wish to book a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be working nearly instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry that administrates this TLD, has special rules about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain need 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 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 – you’ll be able to modify the WHOIS info at any time, to create and to modify Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
