.FR Domain Registration

The .FR country-code Top-Level Domain is the most widely used one amongst speakers of French and if you possess a website in French, such a domain name will be a great choice to connect with tens of millions of WWW users, given the fact that a .FR domain is more likely to have higher French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with considerable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries usually use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an ideal means for you to reach them.

The top-level domain extension was established in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and entities located in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Today, 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 domains, the .FR TLD is one of the most popular country-code extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

If you want to acquire a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go online almost instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry that controls this TLD, has special terms about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain need to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not come across any difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many hosting firms, above all resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a .FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel interface – you’ll be able to edit the WHOIS contact info at any time, to create and to alter Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
