Dot FR Domain Registration

The .FR country-specific extension is the most widespread one among French speakers and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be a great choice to reach tens of millions of WWW users, taking into consideration that a dot FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with sizeable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a number of 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 a great way for you to reach them.

The domain extension was created in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and entities situated in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Today, a .FR domain can be secured by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over two and a half million working domains, the dot FR extension is amongst the most widespread country-specific domains. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you want to grab a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will go live more or less right away. AFNIC, the Registry that manages this TLD, has precise requirements about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain must 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 interface – you’ll be able to modify the WHOIS contact info at any time, to create and to edit Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
