.FR Domain Names

The .FR country-specific domain is the most widely used one among French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain name will be a perfect choice to connect with tens of millions of net users, considering the fact that a .FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine standings. 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 electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is an excellent means for you to get through to them.

The top-level domain extension was started in 1986, but registrations were restricted to individuals and companies based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Nowadays, a dot FR domain can be registered by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than two and a half million active registrations, the .FR TLD is amongst the most widely used country-specific extensions. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past several years.

If you would like to reserve a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be working more or less immediately. AFNIC, the Registry that handles this TLD, has precise terms about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain need to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not encounter any problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting providers, 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 change the WHOIS info at any time, to create and to alter Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
