Dot FR Domain Names

The Dot FR country-specific extension is the most widely used one among speakers of French and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be an ideal choice to get through to tens of millions of Internet users, given the fact that a dot FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine positions. 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 often use French electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is a great chance for you to get through to them.

The TLD was started in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and businesses based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. In the present day, a .FR domain can be ordered by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2.5 million active domains, the dot FR domain name extension is one of the most widespread country-specific extensions. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past several years.

If you would like to get a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be working more or less immediately. AFNIC, the Registry that administrates this TLD, has precise prerequisites about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain need to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not come across any problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting firms, 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 edit the WHOIS contact information at any time, to create and to alter Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
