Dot FR Domains

The Dot FR country-specific domain extension is the most widely used 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 World Wide Web users, considering the fact that a .FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a lot of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries regularly use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is a great chance for you to reach them.

The domain name extension was set up in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and businesses based in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. Today, a .FR domain can be secured by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2.5 million working domains, the dot FR domain name extension is amongst the most popular country-code extensions. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you wish to grab a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be operational nearly instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry organization that handles this TLD, has specific terms about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain should 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 hosting providers, mainly 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 interface – you’ll be able to modify the WHOIS contact information at any time, to create and to modify Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
