.FR Domain Names

The .FR country-code domain name extension is the most widespread one among speakers of French and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be a great choice to reach tens of millions of Internet users, taking into account that a dot FR domain is more likely to have higher French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with sizeable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries regularly use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an excellent chance for you to get through to them.

The domain extension was started in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and companies situated in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Nowadays, 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 .FR domain extension is one of the most widely used country-code domains. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you want to book a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be working almost right away. AFNIC, the Registry that manages this TLD, has special restrictions about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain must 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 firms, especially resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a dot 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 contact information at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
