.FR Domain Names

The .FR country-specific domain is the most widespread one amongst speakers of French and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a good choice to reach tens of millions of WWW users, having in mind the fact that a dot FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with significant 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 a perfect means for you to contact them them.

The domain name extension was launched in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and firms situated in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. These Days, a dot FR domain can be reserved by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2,500,000 functioning domains, the dot FR top-level domain name 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 would like to obtain a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go live almost immediately. AFNIC, the Registry that manages this TLD, has specific requirements 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, mainly resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a .FR domain name with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel – you’ll be able to edit the WHOIS contact details at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
