.FR Domain Registration

The .FR country-code domain is the most widely used one amongst French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain name will be an excellent choice to get through to tens of millions of web users, since a .FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with considerable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and lots of the 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 ideal means for you to contact them them.

The top-level extension was launched in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and firms located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. Nowadays, a .FR domain can be ordered by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2,500,000 active registrations, the dot FR TLD is among the most popular country-specific domains. And this number has increased 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 company and it will go online nearly instantly. AFNIC, the Registry that administrates this TLD, has specific requirements about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain need to 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 hosting firms, mainly 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 edit Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
