When you host a site on a server, it makes use of the server's shared IP - a special number that is used to identify any kind of device connected to the Web. The website name that you use for the website is for easy accessibility and convenience of the visitors, but on a lower level, their web browser connects to the IP of the server. Because there are many more sites than IPs, shared hosting servers use a single IP for a number of sites even in case they belong to different users. Even though this does not affect the site performance directly, using a dedicated IP may slightly boost the loading speed of a given site, providing it superior rankings in search engine results. Such an IP is required for the setup of an SSL certificate as well, so if you plan to secure the payment or login information that your website visitors submit, you should have an IP together with the SSL.

Dedicated IP Address in Cloud Website Hosting

Using a cloud website hosting account on our cloud platform, you are able to buy a dedicated IP and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a couple of clicks no matter where your account is - in the United States, the UK or Australia. This can be done through the Hosted Domains part of the intuitive and user-friendly Hepsia Control Panel where you may also keep track of what IPs are available, what are in use and what sites they are assigned to. In case you would like to use an SSL certificate in order to protect the info of your website visitors and you acquire it through our company, our system will assign a dedicated IP and install the SSL for you, so you will not have to do anything manually on your end. In the meantime, you can still have a site in a subdomain as an add-on to the main one under a shared IP - a community forum where users can share opinions about your services, for example.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you have a semi-dedicated server account, adding your new dedicated IP address takes no more than a couple of clicks. Our Hepsia Control Panel is very simple and intuitive to use, so even when you have not had a website hosting account previously, you won't experience any kind of difficulties to order and assign a dedicated IP. Every domain or subdomain in the account can use its own IP address other than the server's shared one and you'll be able to make this change from the Hosted Domains section, where you'll also find all IPs that your sites can use as well as if a dedicated IP is free or you're already using it. In case that you need an IP for an SSL certificate, we have an SSL order tool through which you are able to select everything to be set up automatically. Using this particular feature, our system will modify the IP of the desired domain/subdomain to a dedicated one and it'll install your certificate in a matter of minutes, so you will not need to do anything on your end except for authorizing the SSL order through electronic mail.

Dedicated IP Address in VPS Servers

If you buy a VPS server from our company, you will have one dedicated IP address automatically and another one in case you acquire a website hosting Control Panel (Hepsia, cPanel). You'll be able to use the IP addresses for any kind of purpose - a site, some web application such as a VOIP server, even for private name servers that you're able to use to point to your VPS any domain name that you would like to host. You can even add more dedicated IP addresses to your VPS account when you need them. This can be done from the billing Control Panel that you will obtain to manage renewals, upgrades and domain name registrations and it takes just a few clicks. After you send your order, the extra IP addresses will be accessible, so you can use them the way you like.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers

Because it is possible to run pretty much anything on a dedicated server, all our packages come with 3 dedicated IP addresses included by default. In case you would like to launch some server software or to install an SSL certificate for a site that you host on the machine, you are able to use the IPs that we provide absolutely free. You may also register child name servers with one or two of the IPs for any website name that you've registered with our company or any place else and then use them to direct other domains to the dedicated server. When you manage a hosting company, for instance, the aforementioned option will contribute to your credibility as an independent supplier. When you need more IPs than the three our packages come with, you're able to get additional ones in increments of three either during the signup process or from your billing Control Panel at any time.
