.FR Domain Registration

The Dot FR country-specific domain is the most popular one among French speakers and if you possess a website in French, such a domain name will be a top choice to connect with tens of millions of web users, due to the fact that a dot FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a number of 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 chance for you to reach them.

The top-level domain extension was set up in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and businesses based in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. These Days, a .FR domain can be secured by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2.5 million active domains, the dot FR domain extension is amongst the most popular country-specific extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you want to acquire a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be operational almost instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry organization that administrates this TLD, has specific prerequisites about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain should 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 firms, particularly resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a .FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel tool – you’ll be able to modify the WHOIS contact info at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
