.FR Domain Names

The .FR country-specific domain name extension is the most widespread one amongst French speakers and if you own a website in French, such a domain name will be a perfect choice to get in touch with tens of millions of net users, taking into account that a .FR domain is more likely 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 lots of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries regularly use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is a wonderful chance for you to get in touch with them them.

The top-level extension was established in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and companies situated in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. At present, a .FR domain can be purchased by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than two and a half million working domains, the dot FR TLD is among the most widely used country-specific extensions. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you want to obtain a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go online more or less right away. AFNIC, the Registry that handles this TLD, has specific terms about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain have 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 providers, in particular 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 tool – you’ll be able to change the WHOIS contact information at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
