Dot FR Domain Registration

The .FR country-specific extension is the most widely used one among French speakers and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be an ideal choice to get in touch with tens of millions of WWW users, given that a dot FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with sizeable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and quite a few of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries usually use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is a wonderful means for you to reach them.

The top-level domain was started in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and companies based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. At present, a dot FR domain can be secured by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than two and a half million functioning domains, the dot FR top-level domain extension is one of the most widely used country-specific extensions. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you would like to obtain a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be working nearly right away. AFNIC, the Registry organization that manages this TLD, has special conditions about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain must have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not have 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 tool – you’ll be able to alter the WHOIS details at any time, to create and to alter Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
