Dot FR Domain Names

The .FR country-specific domain extension is the most widely used one amongst speakers of French and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a good choice to connect with tens of millions of web users, as a dot FR domain is more likely to have higher French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with large French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and many of the 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 means for you to contact them them.

The domain extension was launched in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and businesses situated in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. At present, a dot FR domain can be booked by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over two and a half million functioning domains, the dot FR domain name extension is among the most popular country-specific domains. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past several years.

If you want to order a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be operational nearly right away. AFNIC, the Registry organization that administrates this TLD, has precise rules about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain must have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not have any difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting providers, in particular resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a dot FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel – you’ll be able to edit the WHOIS info at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
