If you host a website on a server, it makes use of the server's shared IP - a special number that's used to distinguish any kind of device connected to the Web. The website name which you use for the website is for easy access and convenience of the site visitors, but on a lower level, their Internet browser connects to the IP address of the server. Since there're many more websites than IPs, shared website hosting servers use a single IP for many different sites even if they are owned by separate users. While this does not affect the website performance directly, using a dedicated IP may slightly enhance the loading speed of a particular site, giving it superior positions in search engine results. Such an IP is essential for the installation of an SSL certificate as well, so if you plan to secure the payment or login data that your site visitors enter, you should have an IP in addition to the SSL.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Website Hosting

We supply dedicated IP addresses with all our Linux shared website hosting regardless of the data center location and you are able to get one or several IPs using your Hepsia Control Panel. An extra section will appear in your account and you can request, view or delete your IPs with several clicks. You'll be able to choose how many domains or subdomains will use a particular IP as you can assign one with a couple of clicks to every hostname. For instance, www.domain.com can be your main site, that uses a server's shared IP, whereas shop.domain.com can be a subdomain where you offer services or goods on the web and it can have a dedicated IP together with an SSL certificate. You can change the IP which a website uses via the Hosted Domains section where you can also keep track which IPs are in use and which ones are available. You may also set a couple of of your sites to use one and the same dedicated IP as long as there is no SSL set up for it.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers

With just a couple of clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to add one or a variety of dedicated IP addresses to your Linux semi-dedicated hosting plan and assign them to your websites. The Hosted Domains part of Hepsia will allow you to find the available IP addresses and to keep track of the ones which are in use with ease. If you want to get a new IP for an SSL certificate, you'll be able to use the auto-configuration function, which is available in our SSL order wizard. If you enable this option, you won't need to do anything after you post your order since our system will request a dedicated IP address, assign it to the domain or subdomain in question, and then install the SSL certificate - all of this automatically and without the need of any action on your end. This way, you're able to shield the data that visitors submit on your site even when you lack previous experience with such matters.

Dedicated IP Address in VPS Servers

In case you obtain a VPS server from our company, you'll have one dedicated IP address as standard and a second one in case you obtain a web hosting Control Panel (Hepsia, cPanel). You are able to use the IP addresses for any purpose - an Internet site, some web app such as a VOIP server, even for private name servers that you're able to use to point to your VPS any domain that you plan to host. You can even add more dedicated IP addresses to the VPS account when you need them. This can be done via the billing Control Panel that you will obtain so as to manage renewals, upgrade purchases and domain name registrations and it takes just a few clicks. Soon after you send your order, the extra IP addresses will be available, so you're able to use them the way you like.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers

In case you buy a dedicated server, you probably plan to run some web application or host a number of sites, so we provide three dedicated IP addresses without charge with each and every package and you can 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 option is really useful in case you use the dedicated server to host clients' websites as it will give you credibility and anonymity as a hosting service provider. The server billing Control Panel will enable you to add extra IP addresses as well - the upgrade is in increments of three and takes only a couple of clicks in the Upgrades section, therefore you will be able to go ahead and employ your brand new dedicated IPs several minutes after you send your order.
