The Dot FR ccTLD is the most widely used one amongst speakers of French and if you own a website in French, such a domain will be a great choice to reach tens of millions of web users, given 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 large 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 means for you to reach them.

The top-level domain was set up in 1986, but registrations were restricted to individuals and businesses based in France until 2011 when the process was loosened. Nowadays, a .FR domain can be secured by anybody from the European Union, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Norway and Iceland. With more than 2.5 million active domains, the dot FR top-level domain extension is among the most popular country-code extensions. And this number has expanded with a whole million over the past couple of years.
