Dot FR Domain Registration

The .FR country-code top-level extension is the most widely used one among French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a top choice to reach tens of millions of net users, considering the fact that a .FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with large 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 an ideal way for you to reach them.

The TLD was established in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and entities situated in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. Nowadays, a dot FR domain can be registered by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 active registrations, the dot FR extension is amongst the most widely used country-code extensions. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past several years.

If you wish to obtain a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be working nearly immediately. AFNIC, the Registry organization that manages this TLD, has special terms about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain have to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not have any problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many hosting companies, especially resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a .FR domain name with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel – you’ll be able to alter the WHOIS information at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
