Dot FR Domain Names

The Dot FR country-specific domain is the most widespread one amongst French speakers and if you possess a website in French, such a domain name will be a perfect choice to reach tens of millions of World Wide Web users, taking into consideration that a dot FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with significant French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and many 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 get through to them.

The top-level domain was launched in 1986, but registrations were limited to individuals and firms situated in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. These Days, a dot FR domain can be registered by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than two and a half million functioning domains, the .FR TLD is amongst the most widespread country-code extensions. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.

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. You will have full control over your domain through our Hepsia Control Panel – you’ll be able to edit the WHOIS details at any time, to create and to alter Custom DNS records, to park domains, etc.
