All devices on the Web are recognized by a unique number called an IP address, for example 123.123.123.123. When you have a site, the domain name that you enter to be able to open it is to save you time, but the server where your website files are still has an IP. Due to the fact that there are far more websites and devices than there are IP addresses, all shared web hosting servers have a number of websites under the same IP, while with a dedicated server you'll be given a dedicated IP as well. Even in the first case though, you will be able to acquire a dedicated IP for your sites and host them on a shared server. One benefit would be that you'll get superior search engine rankings as a dedicated IP often means a quicker loading site. In addition, you need such an IP in case you would like to acquire an SSL certificate for your website and shield the info that your visitors submit on it.

Dedicated IP Address in Cloud Website Hosting

If you use some of our cloud website hosting packages, you'll be able to add a dedicated IP address to your account without any difficulty and assign it to a domain or subdomain with just a few clicks. This is valid no matter which data center you have picked for your account during the registration process, therefore it's possible to take full 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 example, while a forum attached to it can use the server's shared IP since you can edit each domain or subdomain individually from the Hosted Domains section of your Hepsia Control Panel. When you need a dedicated IP for an SSL certificate and you acquire the SSL from us, you will be able to use our auto-configuration tool, which will assign an IP and install the SSL automatically for the site where you'd like to use them.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers

All the dedicated web hosting plans that we offer come with three dedicated IP addresses as standard and cost-free. You will be able to use them for any kind of purpose depending on the content that you have on your server - a game server or a Voice-Over-IP application, an SSL certificate for a site that you host, private name servers for a reseller domain which your customers may use to redirect domains to their hosting accounts, etceterra. In addition, you can obtain more dedicated IPs through the Upgrades part of your billing Control Panel in case you need more than the ones which come with the server. You can obtain the IPs in sets of three and they'll be added to your dedicated server soon after you send your order, so that you can use them with no delays.
