Dot FR Domain Registration

The .FR country-specific domain name extension is the most popular one amongst speakers of French and if you own a website in French, such a domain name will be an ideal choice to reach tens of millions of World Wide Web users, since a .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 quite a few of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries frequently use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an ideal way for you to contact them them.

The domain name extension was set up in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and corporations situated in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. At present, a .FR domain can be bought by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than two and a half million active registrations, the .FR TLD is among the most widespread country-specific domains. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you wish to order a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go live almost immediately. AFNIC, the Registry organization that controls this TLD, has precise requirements about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain have 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 firms, mainly 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 information at any time, to create and to alter Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
