All devices on the World Wide Web are recognized by a special number called an IP address, such as 123.123.123.123. When you have a site, the domain name that you enter in order to open it is for your convenience, yet the server where your site files are still has an IP address. Due to the fact that there're far more sites and devices than there are IPs, all the shared web hosting servers have a number of websites under the very same IP, while using a dedicated server you'll get a dedicated IP too. Even in the first case though, you will be able to acquire a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. One advantage would be that you may get superior search engine rankings since a dedicated IP often means a faster loading site. Last but not least, you need such an IP when you intend to acquire an SSL certificate for your website and secure the information that your visitors submit on it.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Website Hosting

Using a shared website hosting account on our cloud platform, you are able to buy a dedicated IP and assign it to any domain or subdomain with several clicks wherever your account is - in the USA, the UK or Australia. This can be done through the Hosted Domains part of our intuitive and user-friendly Hepsia Control Panel where you may also keep track of what IPs are available, what are in use and what websites they're allotted to. In case you wish to use an SSL certificate to protect the info of your website visitors and you get it from our company, our system will assign a dedicated IP and install the SSL for you, so you won't need to do anything manually on your end. In the meantime, you may still have a site in a subdomain as an addition to the main one under a shared IP - a discussion board where users can share opinions about your services, for example.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers

Considering that you can run almost anything on a dedicated server, all of our packages feature three dedicated IP addresses included by default. In case you would like to launch some server software or to set up an SSL certificate for a site that you host on the machine, you are able to use the IPs which we supply for free. You can also register child name servers with one or two of the IP addresses for any domain name that you've registered with us or elsewhere and then employ them to direct other domains to the dedicated server. If you own a hosting company, for instance, this option will contribute to your credibility as a standalone service provider. When you need more IP addresses than the three the plans include, you'll be able to buy additional ones in increments of 3 either throughout the signup process or through your billing Control Panel at any time.
