.FR Domains

The Dot FR ccTLD is the most widespread one among French speakers and if you possess a website in French, such a domain will be a good choice to reach tens of millions of WWW users, given the fact that a .FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with substantial 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 contact them them.

The domain name extension was set up in 1986, but registrations were restricted to individuals and firms located in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Today, a dot FR domain can be acquired by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 working domains, the .FR domain extension is amongst the most popular country-code extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you would like to obtain a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be operational more or less instantly. AFNIC, the Registry that administrates this TLD, has special requirements about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain must 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 companies, above all 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 tool – you’ll be able to modify the WHOIS information at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
