Dot FR Domain Registration

The Dot FR country-specific domain name extension is the most widespread one amongst French speakers and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be a great choice to get in touch with tens of millions of net users, having in mind that a dot FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with considerable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and many of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries often use French electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is a perfect way for you to reach them.

The top-level domain was started in 1986, but registrations were restricted to individuals and companies situated in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. These Days, a .FR domain can be bought by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 active domains, the .FR domain extension is among the most widespread country-code extensions. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past several years.

If you wish to reserve a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will be working more or less right away.

Many web hosting companies, in particular resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a dot FR domain name 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 modify Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
