Dot FR Domains

The Dot FR country-specific domain extension is the most popular one among speakers of French and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a top choice to get in touch with tens of millions of WWW users, because a dot FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with significant French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and many of the 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 contact them them.

The domain name extension was created in 1986, but registrations were restricted to individuals and firms based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Today, a .FR domain can be booked by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2,500,000 active registrations, the dot FR domain extension is amongst the most popular country-code domains. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past several years.

If you would like to book a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be operational more or less instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry organization that manages this TLD, has specific conditions about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain must 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 web hosting companies, above all 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 modify the WHOIS contact information at any time, to create and to alter Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
