.FR Domains

The Dot FR country-code top-level extension is the most widespread one amongst French speakers and if you possess a website in French, such a domain will be a wonderful choice to get in touch with tens of millions of WWW users, considering that a .FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous 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 means for you to contact them them.

The domain extension was created in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and entities situated in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. Nowadays, a .FR domain can be bought by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2,500,000 working domains, the dot FR top-level extension is one of the most widely used country-specific domains. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you want to acquire a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be operational more or less instantly. AFNIC, the Registry organization that manages this TLD, has special requirements about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain need 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 web hosting companies, especially 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 – you’ll be able to alter the WHOIS info at any time, to create and to modify Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
