.FR Domain Registration

The .FR ccTLD is the most popular one amongst speakers of French and if you possess a website in French, such a domain will be an ideal choice to reach tens of millions of net users, having in mind the fact that a dot FR domain is more likely to have better 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 electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is a great chance for you to reach them.

The top-level domain extension was set up in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and corporations located in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. These Days, a dot FR domain can be ordered by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than two and a half million active registrations, the dot FR top-level domain extension is amongst the most popular country-code extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

If you would like to grab a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will go online more or less right away. AFNIC, the Registry that administrates this TLD, has precise rules about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain must have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not encounter any difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting companies, especially resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a .FR domain name 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 modify Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
