.FR Domain Names
The Dot FR country-code Top-Level Domain is the most widely used one among French speakers and if you possess a website in French, such a domain name will be a wonderful choice to get through to tens of millions of Internet users, as a .FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and lots of the countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries usually use French electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is a great means for you to reach them.
The domain extension was launched in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and companies based in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. These Days, a dot FR domain can be bought by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2.5 million working domains, the .FR extension is amongst the most widespread country-code domains. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past several years.
If you wish to secure a .FR domain, you can do it through our company and it will go live more or less immediately. AFNIC, the Registry organization that administrates this TLD, has precise conditions about certain records that the name servers of a .FR domain must 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 companies, particularly resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a dot FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel tool – 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.
