    What is a domain name?

    A domain name is the address of your website and your email (your-company.fr): it is registered for a year through a registrar, renewed every year, and points, through DNS, to the servers that host your services. At CorceLink, the yearly price is the same at registration and renewal, from €8.90 for a .fr to €59.90 for a .io, DNS included, and the domain is free for the first year with web hosting paid annually.

    Key terms

    Registrar
    The provider that registers the domain with the extension’s registry and renews it every year. Switching registrars is called a transfer.
    DNS
    The directory that connects your domain to your services: website (A and AAAA records), email (MX), sender authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC).
    DNSSEC
    Cryptographic signing of DNS answers: it stops a forged answer from sending your visitors or your email to a fake server.

    FAQ

    Frequently asked questions

    How much does a .fr domain name cost at CorceLink?

    A .fr domain name costs €8.90 per year, at registration and at renewal. This final price includes the DNS zone hosted in France, the transfer lock and one-click DNSSEC; there is no VAT to add (VAT not applicable, art. 293 B of the French Tax Code). The domain is even free for the first year if you take web hosting paid annually.

    Does the price go up at renewal?

    No. At CorceLink, a domain renews at its registration price: a .com costs €15.90 in the first year and in every year after, a .eu €9.90, a .io €59.90. There is no low first-year price followed by a more expensive renewal, and the DNS zone stays included every year.

    How do I transfer my domain name to CorceLink?

    A transfer costs the same as one year of the extension, for example €8.90 for a .fr or €15.90 for a .com, and happens without downtime: your website and email stay online. Usually, your current provider unlocks the domain and gives you its transfer code (AuthInfo), which you pass on to us. CorceLink can move your website, email and files at the same time.

    Is the domain name really free with web hosting?

    Yes: with CorceLink web hosting paid annually, the domain name is free for the first year, on top of the two free months on hosting. The Solo plan, for example, costs €49.00 per year instead of €58.80. The domain then renews at its usual price, €8.90 per year for a .fr.

    Is DNS included, and who sets it up?

    Yes, the DNS zone is included in the price of every domain and is hosted in France. When your services are at CorceLink, DNS sets itself up: for business email, for example, the MX, SPF, DKIM and DMARC records are created when you order, with nothing for you to configure. DNSSEC is one click away.

    Which domain extensions do you offer?

    The CorceLink catalog lists ten extensions, at the same price for registration and renewal: .fr (€8.90 per year), .eu and .be (€9.90), .ch (€14.90), .com (€15.90), .org (€16.90), .net (€17.90), .shop and .paris (€39.90) and .io (€59.90). The .fr remains the most affordable choice for a French business.

    How do I protect my domain name against theft or hijacking?

    Every CorceLink domain has a transfer lock enabled by default: it cannot move to another provider without your consent. DNSSEC, enabled in one click, prevents forged DNS answers. Also turn on two-factor authentication for your client area and give your providers limited access rather than your password.

    What happens when my domain is due for renewal?

    Each year, a renewal invoice is issued at the same price as registration, for example €8.90 for a .fr. If a default card is saved, it is paid automatically at the due date; otherwise, an email lets you know, then reminders are sent until it is paid. Your upcoming due dates appear on the client area dashboard.
