.FR Domain Registration
The Dot FR country-specific domain extension is the most widespread one among French speakers and if you own a website in French, such a domain name will be a good choice to reach tens of millions of Internet users, given that a dot FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with large French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a number of countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries regularly use French electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is an ideal means for you to reach them.
The top-level domain extension was established in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and corporations based in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. Today, a dot FR domain can be purchased by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2,500,000 functioning domains, the .FR domain extension is one of the most widespread country-code extensions. And this number has increased 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 firm and it will go online almost instantaneously. AFNIC, the Registry that handles this TLD, has specific rules about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain need to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not come across any difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting companies, particularly 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 update the WHOIS contact information at any time, to create and to update Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
