All devices on the Internet are recognized by a specific number called an IP address, for instance 123.123.123.123. If you have a website, the domain that you type to be able to load it is to save you time, but the server where your site files are still has an IP. Because there are far more websites and devices than there are IP addresses, all shared website hosting servers have a number of sites under an identical IP, while when you use a dedicated server you'll get a dedicated IP too. Even in the first case though, you're able to get a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. One benefit would be that you'll enjoy improved search engine rankings because a dedicated IP generally means a quicker loading website. Last but not least, you need such an IP when you want to buy an SSL certificate for your site and secure the info that your visitors submit on it.

Dedicated IP Address in Website Hosting

When you use some of our website hosting plans, you will be able to add a dedicated IP to your account in no time and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a few clicks. This is valid no matter which data center you've chosen for your account throughout the registration process, which means that you are able to take full advantage of this feature in our US, UK and AU facilities. This way, you can have a dedicated IP for an electronic commerce site, for instance, while a forum attached to it can use the server's shared IP because you can edit each domain or subdomain individually from the Hosted Domains part of your Hepsia Control Panel. When you need a dedicated IP for an SSL certificate and you get the SSL from our company, you're able to use our auto-configuration instrument, which will assign an IP and install the SSL automatically for the site where you would like to use them.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers

In case you get a dedicated server, you probably would like to run some web application or host a lot of websites, so we supply 3 dedicated IPs gratis with each package and you are able to use them the way you like - a software server, an SSL certificate, even child name servers for a domain that you have registered here or via another company. The last mentioned option is very helpful when you use your dedicated server to host customers' websites due to the fact that it will give you credibility and anonymity as a hosting company. The server billing Control Panel will make it easier to add additional IPs as well - the upgrade is in increments of three and takes just a few clicks in the Upgrades section, therefore you'll be able to go ahead and employ the brand new dedicated IP addresses several minutes after you send your order.
