All devices on the Web are recognized by a special number called an IP address, for instance 123.123.123.123. In case you have a website, the domain that you enter to be able to open it is to save you time, but the server where the website files are still has an IP address. Since there're a lot more sites and devices than there are IPs, all shared hosting servers have a number of websites under an identical IP, whereas when you use a dedicated server you'll get a dedicated IP as well. 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 benefit would be that you may have far better search engine positions since a dedicated IP often means a quicker loading website. Last but not least, you need such an IP when you plan to get an SSL certificate for your website and secure the info that visitors submit on it.
Dedicated IP Address in Hosting
When you use any of our hosting packages, you can add a dedicated IP to your account with ease and assign it to a domain or subdomain with no more than a couple of clicks. This is valid no matter which data center you have chosen for your account during the signup process, thus it's possible to take advantage of this feature in our US, UK and AU facilities. In 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 as you can modify each domain or subdomain individually from the Hosted Domains section of your Hepsia Control Panel. If you would like a dedicated IP for an SSL certificate and you obtain the SSL through our company, you will be able to use our auto-configuration tool, that will assign an IP and set up the SSL automatically for the website where you want to use them.
Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you have a semi-dedicated server account, adding a new dedicated IP address takes no more than a couple of clicks. Our Hepsia Control Panel is very easy and intuitive to use, so even when you haven't had a hosting account before, you will not have any difficulties to get and assign a dedicated IP address. Every domain or subdomain within the account can use its own IP instead of the server's shared one and you will be able to make this change from the Hosted Domains section, where you'll also see all IPs that your sites can use as well as if a dedicated IP is accessible or you're already using it. In case that you wish to have an IP for an SSL certificate, we have an SSL order instrument through which you will be able to select everything to be set up automatically. When you use this particular feature, our system will modify the IP address of the desired domain/subdomain to a dedicated one and it will install the certificate in a couple of minutes, so you won't have to do anything on your end other than approving the SSL request through electronic mail.
Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Hosting
Because you'll be able to run pretty much anything on a dedicated server, all of our packages feature three dedicated IP addresses included by default. If you plan to launch some server software or to set up an SSL certificate for a website that you host on the machine, you are able to use the IPs that we provide absolutely free. You can also register child name servers with one or two of the IP addresses for any website name that you've registered with our company or elsewhere then use them to direct other domains to the dedicated server. When you own a web hosting company, for instance, this option will contribute to your credibility as an independent service provider. If you need more IPs than the three our plans come with, you will be able to purchase additional ones in increments of 3 either throughout the registration process or from your billing Control Panel any time.
