.FR Domain Registration

The Dot FR country-code domain is the most widely used one among speakers of French and if you own a website in French, such a domain name will be a great choice to connect with tens of millions of web users, taking into account that a dot FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine positions. 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 frequently use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an ideal way for you to contact them them.

The top-level domain extension was established in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and corporations situated in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Today, a dot FR domain can be purchased by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 working domains, the .FR extension is amongst the most widely used country-code domains. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you want to acquire a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be operational more or less right away. AFNIC, the Registry organization that handles this TLD, has precise requirements about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain need to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not encounter any problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting companies, especially 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 tool – you’ll be able to modify the WHOIS contact info at any time, to create and to edit Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
