.FR Domain Names
The .FR country-code Top-Level Domain is the most widespread one among French speakers and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be a perfect choice to get in touch with tens of millions of World Wide Web users, given 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 substantial French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a lot 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 great chance for you to get in touch with them them.
The top-level extension was set up in 1986, but registrations were restricted to individuals and corporations based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. At present, a .FR domain can be acquired by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 functioning domains, the .FR top-level domain name extension is one of the most widely used country-code extensions. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past couple of years.
If you want to register a dot FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will go online almost instantly. AFNIC, the Registry that controls this TLD, has precise conditions about certain records that the name servers of a .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 companies, especially 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 update the WHOIS contact information at any time, to create and to change Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
