.FR Domain Registration

The .FR country-specific top-level domain is the most widely used one among speakers of French and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be a perfect choice to contact tens of millions of net users, having in mind that a dot FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine standings. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with sizeable French-speaking communities, such as Canada, Switzerland, Belgium and a number of countries in Northern and Central Africa. People from all these countries frequently use French email providers and search online for French websites, so this is an ideal chance for you to get through to them.

The TLD was established in 1986, but registrations were limited to persons and firms based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. These Days, a dot FR domain can be reserved by anybody from the EU, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2,500,000 working domains, the dot FR domain extension is amongst the most popular country-code domains. And this number has risen with a whole million over the past several years.
