.FR Domains

The Dot FR country-code domain name extension is the most widely used one among French speakers and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be an ideal choice to get through to tens of millions of net users, due to the fact that a dot FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with considerable 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 an ideal means for you to contact them them.

The top-level domain name extension was set up in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and companies based in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. In the present day, a .FR domain can be bought by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than two and a half million working domains, the dot FR domain extension is one of the most widely used country-specific extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

If you want to secure a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go online almost immediately. AFNIC, the Registry organization that handles this TLD, has specific restrictions about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain must 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 companies, particularly resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a dot FR domain name with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel tool – you’ll be able to edit the WHOIS info at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
