Dot FR Domain Names

The .FR ccTLD is the most popular one amongst speakers of French and if you own a website in French, such a domain name will be a wonderful choice to get in touch with tens of millions of WWW users, due to the fact that a dot FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a lot of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries usually use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an ideal means for you to get through to them.

The top-level domain name extension was established in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and companies situated in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. In the present day, a .FR domain can be acquired by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2.5 million active domains, the .FR top-level domain extension is among the most popular country-code extensions. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past several years.

If you wish to obtain a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will go live more or less instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry organization that handles this TLD, has specific rules about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain have to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not encounter any problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting firms, 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 modify the WHOIS info at any time, to create and to edit Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
