.FR

Dot FR Domain Names

The .FR country-code top-level domain extension is the most widely used one among French speakers and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be a perfect choice to get in touch with tens of millions of Internet users, because a .FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states 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 often use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an ideal way for you to get through to them.

The top-level extension was launched in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and entities based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. In the present day, a .FR domain can be reserved by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 functioning domains, the dot FR top-level domain name extension is one of the most popular country-code extensions. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you want to buy a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will go live almost instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry organization that controls this TLD, has special prerequisites about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain have to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not encounter any difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many hosting providers, in particular resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a dot FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel – you’ll be able to change the WHOIS information at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
