Dot FR Domain Names

The Dot FR country-specific extension 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 through to tens of millions of Internet users, given the fact that a dot FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine rankings. 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 usually use French electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is an excellent means for you to contact them them.

The domain extension was established in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and firms situated in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. Nowadays, a .FR domain can be secured by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over two and a half million active registrations, the dot FR top-level domain name extension is among the most popular country-specific extensions. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you wish to buy a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be operational nearly instantly. AFNIC, the Registry that controls this TLD, has precise conditions 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 web hosting firms, particularly resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a .FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel – you’ll be able to update the WHOIS details at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
