Dot FR Domain Registration
The .FR country-code top-level extension is the most widely used one among speakers of French and if you possess a website in French, such a domain name will be a top choice to contact tens of millions of net users, taking into consideration that a dot FR domain is more likely to have better French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with large French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous 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 an excellent way for you to reach them.
The top-level domain was launched in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and corporations located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. In the present day, a .FR domain can be purchased by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over 2.5 million active domains, the .FR top-level extension is one of the most popular country-code extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past couple of years.
If you want to get a .FR domain, you can do it through our firm and it will go live nearly immediately. AFNIC, the Registry that manages this TLD, has special restrictions about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain should 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 web hosting firms, particularly resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a .FR domain with them. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel – you’ll be able to alter the WHOIS details at any time, to create and to edit Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
