If you host a website on a server, it uses the server's shared IP address - an exclusive number that's used to distinguish every device connected to the Internet. The website name that you use for the website is for easy access and convenience of the website visitors, but on a more basic level, their web browser connects to the IP address of the server. Considering that there're a lot more sites than IP addresses, shared hosting servers use a single IP for a number of websites even in case they are owned by several users. While this does not affect the site performance directly, using a dedicated IP can slightly improve the loading speed of a certain site, providing it higher positions in search engine results. Such an IP is needed for the installation of an SSL certificate as well, so when you want to secure the payment or login info that your site visitors enter, you will need an IP alongside the SSL.
Dedicated IP Address in Shared Website Hosting
When you use any of our shared website hosting packages, you will be able to add a dedicated IP address to your account in no time and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a couple of clicks. This is valid whichever data center you've selected for the account throughout the registration process, therefore you'll be able to take advantage of this feature in our US, UK and AU facilities. This way, you can have a dedicated IP for an e-commerce website, for instance, whereas a forum attached to it can use the server's shared IP because you can edit each domain or subdomain independently through the Hosted Domains area of your Hepsia Control Panel. When you need a dedicated IP for an SSL certificate and you get the SSL from us, you're able to use our auto-configuration tool, which will assign an IP and install the SSL automatically for the site where you wish to use them.
Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Hosting
With only a couple of clicks inside your Hepsia Control Panel, you can add one or several dedicated IP addresses to your Linux semi-dedicated package and assign them to your sites. The Hosted Domains part of Hepsia will help you view the available IP addresses and to check those that 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 enable this option, you will not have to do anything after you post your order since our system will request a dedicated IP address, assign it to the domain or subdomain involved, then add the SSL certificate - all of this automatically and without the need of any action on your end. In this way, you are able to protect the info that visitors upload on your website even when you lack previous experience with such matters.
Dedicated IP Address in VPS Web Hosting
We give a free of charge dedicated IP address with each and every Linux VPS web hosting packages that we offer and if you select a web hosting Control Panel on the VPS order page, you'll get an extra dedicated IP without charge. The addresses can be used for any kind of objective - an Internet site provided you wish to install an SSL certificate or a server IP if you need to run some application like VOIP software, for instance. You can also use the IPs to create child name servers for one or more website names that you have and after that you can set them as NS records for any other domain that you would like to direct to your Virtual Server. Every time you need extra dedicated IP addresses, it will take you just a few clicks from your billing Control Panel to obtain them and they'll be allocated to your server very quickly.
Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers Hosting
As you're able to run more or less anything on a dedicated server, all our plans feature three dedicated IP addresses included as standard. If you would like to launch some server software or to activate an SSL certificate for a site that you host on the machine, you will be able to use the IPs which we provide you with free of charge. In addition, you can register child name servers with one or two of the IP addresses for any website name that you have registered through our company or elsewhere and then use them to point other domains to the dedicated server. If you run a hosting company, for instance, the aforementioned option will contribute to your credibility as a standalone supplier. If you need more IPs than the three our plans come with, you'll be able to purchase extra ones in increments of 3 either during the registration process or from your billing Control Panel at any time.
