.FR Domain Registration

The .FR ccTLD is the most widespread one among French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a good choice to get through to tens of millions of Internet users, considering the fact that a dot FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with large 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 excellent way for you to reach them.

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

If you wish to purchase a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go online almost instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry organization that handles this TLD, has specific prerequisites about certain records that the name servers of a .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, above all 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 – you’ll be able to alter the WHOIS info at any time, to create and to edit Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
