.FR Domains

The .FR country-specific extension 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 reach tens of millions of web users, given the fact that a .FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with considerable 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 a perfect means for you to contact them them.

The domain name extension was launched in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and entities located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. Today, a .FR domain can be bought by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than two and a half million functioning domains, the dot FR top-level domain name extension is amongst the most popular country-code extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you want to book a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be operational almost immediately. AFNIC, the Registry organization that administrates this TLD, has specific terms about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain must have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not encounter any difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting firms, above all resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a dot FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel – you’ll be able to edit the WHOIS contact info at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
