Dot FR Domains

The .FR country-specific top-level domain name extension is the most popular one amongst French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a good choice to get in touch with tens of millions of Internet users, due to the fact that a dot FR domain is more probable to have higher French search engine rankings. This doesn’t include only France, but also countries with considerable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and numerous countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries regularly use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is a perfect means for you to reach them.

The top-level domain was set up in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and corporations located in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. At present, a dot FR domain can be registered by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 functioning domains, the .FR domain extension is amongst the most widespread country-code extensions. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past several years.

Many hosting providers, in particular resellers, don’t offer the full set of records, so you can’t really host a dot FR domain with them.
