.FR Domain Registration

The .FR country-code top-level domain extension is the most popular one amongst speakers of French and if you possess a website in French, such a domain name will be a top choice to contact tens of millions of Internet users, taking into consideration that a dot FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with sizeable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and many of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries regularly 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 name extension was established in 1986, but registrations were restricted to individuals and businesses located in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Today, a .FR domain can be obtained by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 working domains, the dot FR extension is one of the most popular country-code domains. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past several years.

If you wish to secure a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go live nearly right away. AFNIC, the Registry that manages this TLD, has special conditions about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain should have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not come across any difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many 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 tool – you’ll be able to alter the WHOIS contact information at any time, to create and to edit Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
