If you host a website on a server, it makes use of the server's shared IP address - an exclusive number which is used to detect any kind of device connected to the Internet. The domain name which you use for the website is for easy accessibility and convenience of the site visitors, but on a more basic level, their browser connects to the IP of the server. Because there are a lot more websites than IPs, shared website hosting servers use the very same IP for a number of sites even if they belong to several users. While this does not affect your website performance directly, having a dedicated IP may slightly boost the loading speed of a site, granting it higher rankings in search engine results. Such an IP is required for the installation of an SSL certificate too, so if you would like to protect the payment or login details that your website visitors submit, you should have an IP alongside the SSL.
Dedicated IP Address in Cloud Hosting
When you use some of our cloud hosting plans, you can add a dedicated IP address to your account in no time and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a few clicks. This is valid no matter which data center you've selected for the account during the signup process, so you are able 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 edit each and every 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 obtain the SSL through our company, you're able to use our auto-configuration tool, that will assign an IP and install the SSL automatically for the website where you wish to use them.
Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers
When you have a semi-dedicated server account, adding your new dedicated IP address takes only a few clicks. Our Hepsia Control Panel is very simple and intuitive to use, so even when you haven't had a website hosting account before, you won't experience any difficulties to acquire and assign a dedicated IP. Each domain or subdomain in the account can use its own IP instead of the server's shared one and you can make this change from the Hosted Domains section, where you will also view all IPs that your websites can use as well as if a dedicated IP is available or you are already using it. In case that you need an IP for an SSL certificate, we have an SSL order instrument through which you will be able to select everything to be installed automatically. Using this feature, our system will modify the IP of the desired domain/subdomain to a dedicated one and it'll install your certificate in a couple of minutes, so you won't need to do anything on your end other than authorizing your SSL request via electronic mail.
Dedicated IP Address in VPS Servers
In case you get a VPS server from our company, you will have one dedicated IP address as standard and another one in case you acquire a website hosting Control Panel (Hepsia, cPanel). You can use the IPs for any kind of purpose - an Internet site, some web app such as a VOIP server, even for private name servers that you are able to use to point to your VPS any website which you intend to host. You can even add more dedicated IP addresses to your VPS account when you need them. You can do this through the billing Control Panel that you will acquire so as to take care of renewals, upgrade purchases and domain name registrations and it takes only a few clicks. Soon after you post your order, the added IP addresses will be available, so you are able to use them the way you like.
Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers
Since all of our dedicated service feature three dedicated IP addresses provided in the plans as standard, we'll give you a head start if you'd like to run any application which requires this type of an IP. We provide them cost-free and you can use them for as long as you use your server for anything you'd like - child name servers for any domain name which you host, an SSL certificate for any website on your server, a software server (online games, VOIP), etc. Using the Upgrades menu in the billing Control Panel that you will receive to manage renewals, service upgrades and domain registrations, you'll also be able to purchase more dedicated IP addresses in sets of three whenever you need. They'll be assigned to your server within a few minutes, so you can start using them for your websites and web-based apps without delay.
