Dot FR Domain Registration

The .FR country-code domain extension is the most widely used one amongst speakers of French and if you possess a website in French, such a domain will be a perfect choice to get in touch with tens of millions of WWW users, having in mind that a dot FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with considerable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous 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 perfect way for you to contact them them.

The top-level domain was set up in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and corporations located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. At present, a .FR domain can be bought by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than two and a half million functioning domains, the dot FR top-level domain extension is amongst the most widely used country-code extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

If you want to register a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be operational nearly instantly. AFNIC, the Registry that handles this TLD, has precise terms about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain should have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not encounter any difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting firms, in particular 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 – you’ll be able to modify the WHOIS info at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
