Dot FR Domain Registration

The .FR country-code domain name extension is the most widely used one amongst speakers of French and if you possess a website in French, such a domain will be a perfect choice to reach tens of millions of World Wide Web users, as a .FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with large French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous 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 an ideal way for you to contact them them.

The top-level extension was created in 1986, but registrations were restricted to individuals and firms based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. In the present day, a dot FR domain can be bought by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2.5 million active registrations, the dot FR 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.

AFNIC, the Registry organization that controls this TLD, has special prerequisites 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 difficulties to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting firms, particularly resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a .FR domain name with them.
