.FR Domain Names

The Dot FR country-code Top-Level Domain is the most widespread one amongst speakers of French and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a top choice to get through to tens of millions of web users, given the fact that a .FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine positions. 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 frequently use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an excellent way for you to contact them them.

The top-level domain was established in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and entities located in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Today, a .FR domain can be secured by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 active registrations, the .FR TLD is among the most popular country-specific extensions. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you would like to register a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be working almost instantly. AFNIC, the Registry that controls this TLD, has special rules about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain need to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not come across any difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting providers, in particular 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 update the WHOIS details at any time, to create and to modify Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
