All devices on the World Wide Web are recognized by a specific number called an IP address, such as 123.123.123.123. In case you have a website, the domain name that you enter to access it is to save you time, but the server where the site files are still has an IP address. Due to the fact that there're many more websites and devices than there are IP addresses, all shared website hosting servers have a number of websites under the very same IP, while using a dedicated server you will have a dedicated IP as well. Even in the first case though, you are able to get a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. One advantage would be that you will enjoy far better search engine rankings as a dedicated IP often means a quicker loading website. Furthermore, you need such an IP in case you intend to buy an SSL certificate for your website and secure the info that visitors submit on it.
Dedicated IP Address in Shared Hosting
Using a shared hosting account on our cloud platform, you'll be able to purchase a dedicated IP and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a few clicks no matter where your account is - in the United States, Great Britain or Australia. This is done from the Hosted Domains area 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 so as to protect the info of your website visitors and you acquire it through us, our system can assign a dedicated IP and install the SSL for you, so you won't be required to anything manually on your end. Meanwhile, you can still have a website in a subdomain as an addition to the main one under a shared IP - a discussion board where users can share their opinion about your services, for example.
Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Hosting
When you purchase a semi-dedicated server account from our company, you'll get the opportunity to acquire as many dedicated IPs as you would like depending on your preferences. It will take a few clicks inside the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel to get a new IP plus several more to assign it to a domain or a subdomain. The whole process is really easy and your website will start loading from your new IP address within minutes. Hepsia will enable you to view all IPs that you can use, both shared & dedicated, and which of the latter are available or taken. In case you'd like to use an SSL certificate on some of your websites and you need a dedicated IP for it, you can take advantage of our SSL order wizard, that can assign a new IP and set up the certificate the moment you submit your order, so you will not need to modify anything in your semi-dedicated website hosting account by yourself.
Dedicated IP Address in VPS Hosting
If you purchase a virtual private server from us, you'll get one dedicated IP address by default and an extra one in case you obtain a web hosting Control Panel (Hepsia, cPanel, DirectAdmin). You will be able to use the IPs for any purpose - an Internet site, some web app such as a VOIP server, even for private name servers that you can use to point to your VPS any website that you plan to host. You can also add more dedicated IP addresses to the VPS account any time you need them. You can do this via the billing Control Panel that you will acquire to take care of renewals, upgrades and domain name registrations and it takes no more than a couple of clicks. Soon after you upload your order, the added IP addresses will be accessible, so you are able to use them as you see fit.
Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Web Hosting
If you acquire a dedicated server, you probably would like to run a web app or host numerous sites, so we supply 3 dedicated IP addresses absolutely free with each and every plan and you will be able to use them as you see fit - a software server, an SSL certificate, even child name servers for a domain which you've registered here or via another company. The last option is very useful in case you use the dedicated server to host customers' sites considering that it'll give you credibility and anonymity as a website hosting company. The server billing Control Panel will make it easier to add additional IPs as well - the upgrade is in increments of three and takes only a couple of clicks in the Upgrades section, so you can go ahead and take advantage of the new dedicated IP addresses just a few minutes after you send your order.
