.FR Domain Names

The .FR country-code domain extension is the most widespread one amongst speakers of French and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a top choice to reach tens of millions of World Wide Web users, since a .FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with considerable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and quite a few of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries frequently use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an excellent means for you to contact them them.

The top-level domain extension was created in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and firms located in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. At present, a dot FR domain can be bought by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2,500,000 active registrations, the dot FR TLD is one of the most widely used country-specific extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past couple of years.

If you wish to book a dot FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go online almost instantly. AFNIC, the Registry that manages this TLD, has specific conditions about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain should have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not come across 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 with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel – you’ll be able to modify the WHOIS contact details at any time, to create and to edit Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
