.FR Domain Registration

The Dot FR country-code domain name extension is the most widespread one amongst speakers of French and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be an ideal choice to contact tens of millions of net users, since a .FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with large 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 electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is a great means for you to contact them them.

The top-level domain name extension was established in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and companies located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. These Days, a .FR domain can be bought by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over two and a half million functioning domains, the .FR top-level domain extension is one of the most widely used country-code domains. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

If you would like to purchase a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will go online almost instantly. AFNIC, the Registry that handles this TLD, has specific rules 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 difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting providers, above all 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 change the WHOIS details at any time, to create and to edit Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
