Hosting a .fr domain name = Distinction and proximity to France

Nearly 82% of French Internet users spontaneously search for .fr websites.

If a domain name hosted under a generic extension (.com) remains associated with an international image, the .fr domain name has a national and French image.

For French Internet users, the .fr extension means that the company, the association or the company is located in France and is therefore easily reachable. This is a real asset, particularly for commercial companies, organizations and other establishments or even e-commerce sites aimed at all French people. For these activities, registering a .fr domain name is not only a guarantee of proximity and responsiveness but also a sign that the offer has been designed for France. It therefore complies with regulations protecting French consumers.

Hosting a .fr domain name = Stability, performance and security

In France, AFNIC (French Association for Internet Naming in Cooperation) places .fr domain names under the naming charter that respects the general interest. Attentive to respecting the rights of third parties and rigorous with regard to technical quality, the French association places the .fr extension at a high level of stability and performance. This advantage allows .fr domain names to be accessible from any point on the Internet. This reliability and security have been reinforced since 2010 by the implementation of DNSSEC, an Internet protocol which guarantees the integrity of DNS information coming from the .fr zone. Technically, a .fr domain name can contain 2 to 63 alphanumeric characters.
