Dot FR Domains

The Dot FR country-code Top-Level Domain is the most widely used one among speakers of French and if you possess a website in French, such a domain will be an excellent choice to contact tens of millions of Internet users, due to the fact that a dot FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and lots 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 a wonderful way for you to get through to them.

The top-level domain extension was launched in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and businesses based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. In the present day, a dot FR domain can be registered by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 active domains, the .FR extension is among the most widely used country-specific domains. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you would like to secure a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be operational nearly immediately. AFNIC, the Registry organization that administrates this TLD, has precise requirements about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain have to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not have any difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many hosting providers, above all 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 – you’ll be able to change the WHOIS information at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
