.FR Domain Names
The Dot FR country-specific top-level domain extension is the most widely used one among speakers of French and if you have a website in French, such a domain name will be a good choice to get through to tens of millions of WWW users, taking into account that a dot FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with significant French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a lot 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 domain name extension was started in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and entities located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. Today, a .FR domain can be purchased by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 working domains, the .FR top-level extension is one of the most popular country-specific domains. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past couple of years.
If you want to purchase a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will be operational nearly immediately. AFNIC, the Registry organization that handles this TLD, has specific restrictions about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain have to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not have any problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many hosting firms, 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 alter the WHOIS contact details at any time, to create and to alter Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
