.FR Domain Registration

The Dot FR country-code domain is the most widely used one amongst speakers of French and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a great choice to get in touch with tens of millions of WWW users, since a dot FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with large French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and quite a few 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 a wonderful means for you to contact them them.

The top-level domain was set up in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and companies situated in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. These Days, a dot FR domain can be obtained by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over two and a half million active domains, the .FR domain extension is amongst the most widely used country-code domains. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you wish to obtain a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go online almost instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry that administrates this TLD, has precise terms about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain have to 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 web hosting firms, especially 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 information at any time, to create and to alter Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
