.FR Domain Registration

The Dot FR country-specific domain is the most widely used one amongst speakers of French and if you possess a website in French, such a domain will be a good choice to reach tens of millions of WWW users, because a .FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with significant French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a number of countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries often use French electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is a wonderful means for you to get through to them.

The top-level domain name extension was started in 1986, but registrations were restricted to individuals and firms located in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Today, a dot FR domain can be obtained by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2,500,000 working domains, the dot FR domain extension is one of the most widespread country-code extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

If you want to purchase a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be working more or less instantly. AFNIC, the Registry that administrates 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 have any problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting providers, especially resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a .FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel tool – you’ll be able to edit the WHOIS info at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
