Dot FR Domain Names

The Dot FR country-code top-level extension is the most popular one amongst French speakers and if you have a website in French, such a domain will be a perfect choice to contact tens of millions of World Wide Web users, because a .FR domain is more probable to have better French search engine positions. This doesn’t include only France, but also states with substantial 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 great way for you to get through to them.

The TLD was launched in 1986, but registrations were restricted to individuals and entities situated in France until 2011 when the process was liberalized. Today, a .FR domain can be acquired by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With over two and a half million active domains, the dot FR top-level extension is amongst the most widespread country-specific domains. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past couple of years.
