Dot FR Domain Names

The .FR country-specific top-level extension is the most widespread one amongst speakers of French and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a good choice to connect with tens of millions of net users, having in mind that a dot FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states 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 often use French electronic mail providers and search online for French websites, so this is a wonderful way for you to reach them.

The top-level domain was established in 1986, but registrations were restricted to persons and corporations located in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Today, a .FR domain can be secured by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2.5 million functioning domains, the .FR TLD is amongst the most widely used country-code extensions. And this number has increased with a whole million over the past several years.

AFNIC, the Registry organization that manages this TLD, has precise prerequisites about certain records that the name servers of a dot FR domain need to have, and we meet these requirements, so you will not encounter any problems to get your site up and running in a matter of minutes. Many web hosting firms, mainly resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a dot FR domain name with them.
