.FR Domain Names

The .FR country-specific top-level domain extension is the most widely used one among French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain name will be an excellent choice to contact tens of millions of WWW users, having in mind the fact that a .FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also states 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 electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is a great way for you to reach them.

The top-level domain extension was launched in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and companies located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. Today, a dot FR domain can be reserved by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 functioning domains, the dot FR domain name extension is among the most popular country-specific domains. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you would like to reserve a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be operational almost right away. AFNIC, the Registry organization that administrates this TLD, has special conditions about certain records that the name servers of a dot 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 hosting companies, in particular 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 tool – you’ll be able to edit the WHOIS contact information at any time, to create and to edit Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
