All devices on the Internet are identified by a special number called an IP address, such as 123.123.123.123. If you have a website, the domain name that you enter to load it is for your convenience, however the server where your website files are still has an IP. Since there are far more sites and devices than there're IPs, all the shared website hosting servers have a number of websites under the same IP, whereas using a dedicated server you'll be given a dedicated IP too. Even in the first case though, you are able to acquire a dedicated IP for your sites and host them on a shared server. One benefit would be that you may get improved search engine rankings since a dedicated IP generally means a faster loading website. Also, you need such an IP when you intend to acquire an SSL certificate for your site and secure the info that visitors submit on it.

Dedicated IP Address in Web Hosting

When you use a web hosting account on our cloud platform, you can get a dedicated IP and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a couple of clicks no matter where your account is - in the USA, Great Britain or Australia. This can be done from the Hosted Domains part of our intuitive and user-friendly Hepsia Control Panel where you can also monitor what IPs are available, what are in use and what websites they are allotted to. If you want to use an SSL certificate in order to secure the information of your website visitors and you acquire it from our company, our system can assign a dedicated IP and install the SSL for you, so you won't be required to anything manually on your end. Meanwhile, you can still have a site in a subdomain as an add-on to the main one under a shared IP - a discussion forum where users can share opinions about your services, for example.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Hosting

With only a couple of clicks inside your Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to add one or several dedicated IP addresses to your Linux semi-dedicated hosting package and assign them to your websites. The Hosted Domains part of Hepsia will allow you to see the available IPs and to check the ones which are in use with ease. In case you want to get a new IP for an SSL certificate, you're able to use the auto-configuration function, that is available in our SSL order wizard. When you activate this option, you won't need to do anything after you submit your order because our system will request a dedicated IP address, assign it to the domain or subdomain involved, and then add the SSL certificate - all of this automatically and without the need of any action on your end. This way, you can shield the info that visitors upload on your site even if you do not have any previous experience with this type of matters.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers Hosting

If you obtain a dedicated server, you probably would like to run a web application or host a lot of websites, so we supply three dedicated IP addresses gratis with every single package and you'll be able to use them as you see fit - a software server, an SSL certificate, even child name servers for a domain name that you have registered here or from another company. The aforementioned option is very helpful when you use the dedicated server to host clients' websites since it will give you credibility and anonymity as a website hosting service provider. The server billing Control Panel will enable you to add more IP addresses as well - the upgrade is in increments of three and takes only a couple of clicks in the Upgrades section, so you will be able to go ahead and take advantage of your brand new dedicated IPs several minutes after you send your order.
