Dot FR Domain Registration

The Dot FR country-specific top-level domain name extension is the most popular one amongst speakers of French and if you have a website in French, such a domain name will be a good choice to connect with tens of millions of net users, given that a dot FR domain is more likely to have higher French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries frequently use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an excellent chance for you to get through to them.

The top-level domain was started in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and entities located in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Today, a .FR domain can be secured by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2.5 million active domains, the .FR domain name extension is one of the most popular country-specific domains. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past several years.

If you wish to book a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be operational nearly immediately. AFNIC, the Registry that manages this TLD, has special requirements 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, particularly 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 modify the WHOIS contact information at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
