.FR Domain Registration

The .FR ccTLD is the most widespread one amongst speakers of French and if you own a website in French, such a domain name will be a good choice to connect with tens of millions of net users, due to the fact that a dot FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and many of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries usually use French electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is an excellent chance for you to get in touch with them them.

The top-level extension was started in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and companies situated in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. At present, a .FR domain can be secured by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 active registrations, the dot FR TLD is among the most widely used country-specific domains. 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 company and it will be operational nearly right away. AFNIC, the Registry that manages this TLD, has precise terms about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain need to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not have any difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting providers, particularly 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 change the WHOIS information at any time, to create and to modify Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
