The name of the site is composed with the two English names "No" and Frag, which means to kill someone temporarily in computer games.

Being focused on First-person shooter hardcore gaming, they have sometimes been considered as "elitists" by other gaming websites[4] They are usually around the 20th position by Alexa for French video game sites[5]

History

NoFrag was founded on March 4, 2001. The site proposed a forum until July 2006,[6] but has now been replaced them by a blogging system.

In 2004, the NoCorp company was founded to earn revenue and support the web site activity from advertising. Since 2005, the site has an average of more than 40000 visits every day.[3][7]
