.FR Domain Registration

The Dot FR country-specific domain name extension is the most popular one among speakers of French and if you own a website in French, such a domain name will be an ideal choice to connect with tens of millions of web users, given the fact that a .FR domain is more probable to have higher 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 email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an ideal way for you to reach them.

The top-level extension was started in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and firms located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. In the present day, a dot FR domain can be purchased by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over two and a half million active registrations, the .FR top-level domain extension is among the most widely used country-specific domains. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you wish to obtain a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be operational nearly immediately. AFNIC, the Registry organization that manages this TLD, has specific conditions about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain have 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 hosting providers, particularly resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a dot FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel tool – you’ll be able to update the WHOIS information at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
