All devices on the Web are recognized by a unique number called an IP address, for instance 123.123.123.123. When you have a site, the domain that you enter in order to load it is for your convenience, however the server where the site files are still has an IP address. Due to the fact that there are far more websites and devices than there're IPs, all of the shared hosting servers have a number of sites under the very same IP, while with a dedicated server you'll have a dedicated IP too. 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. An advantage would be that you will enjoy better search engine rankings because a dedicated IP often means a faster loading site. Also, you need such an IP in case you plan to obtain an SSL certificate for your website and secure the data that visitors submit on it.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Website Hosting

If you host your sites on our state-of-the-art cloud platform and you have a shared website hosting package, you will be able to add a dedicated IP to your account at any time and assign it to any domain or subdomain with only a couple of clicks. The aforementioned option is available in all data centers where we offer services - Chicago (US), London (UK) and Sydney (AU), so whatever your choice during the registration process, you're able to acquire a dedicated IP for your sites. You can add / remove an IPas well as to keep track of the free and used ones at any time. In case any of the IPs that you buy will be used for an SSL certificate, you could activate the automatic configuration feature in our SSL order wizard and our system will request and assign the IP before it sets up your certificate automatically. Our flexible platform will enable you to use a dedicated IP for multiple sites as well if it's not in use by an SSL.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers

With just a few clicks inside your Hepsia Control Panel, you can add one or a variety of dedicated IP addresses to your semi-dedicated server and assign them to your websites. The Hosted Domains section of Hepsia will allow you to see the available IPs and to keep track of those that are in use with ease. Provided you want to get a new IP for an SSL certificate, you are able to use the auto-configuration function, that's available in our SSL order wizard. When you activate this feature, you won't have to do anything after you send in your order since our system will request a dedicated IP, assign it to the domain or subdomain involved, then add the SSL certificate - all this automatically and without any action on your end. This way, you are able to secure the information that visitors submit on your site even when you don't have any previous experience with such matters.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers

Since you are able to run almost anything on a dedicated server, all our plans come with 3 dedicated IP addresses included as standard. In case you wish to launch some server software or to set up an SSL certificate for a site that you host on the machine, you can use the IPs which we supply for free. You may also register child name servers with one or two of the IP addresses for any domain name that you have registered with our company or any place else and then use them to point other domains to the dedicated server. If you own a website hosting company, for instance, this option will contribute to your credibility as a standalone provider. When you need more IP addresses than the three the plans provide you with, you will be able to purchase additional ones in increments of 3 either throughout the signup process or from your billing Control Panel any time.
