All devices on the Web are recognized by a specific number called an IP address, for instance 123.123.123.123. In case you have a website, the domain name that you enter in order to access it is for your convenience, however the server where the website files are still has an IP address. Because there're many more websites and devices than there're IPs, all shared website hosting servers have a number of websites under an identical IP, whereas with a dedicated server you'll have a dedicated IP too. Even in the first case though, you can obtain a dedicated IP for your sites and host them on a shared server. One advantage would be that you'll have superior search engine rankings as a dedicated IP often means a faster loading site. In addition, you need such an IP if you intend to acquire an SSL certificate for your website and shield the info that visitors submit on it.

Dedicated IP Address in Web Hosting

We provide dedicated IPs with all of our web hosting plans regardless of the data center location and you're able to obtain one or several IPs from your Hepsia Control Panel. A fresh section will show up as part of your account and you'll be able to request, delete or view your IPs with several clicks. You'll be able to decide how many websites or subdomains will use a certain IP since you can assign one with a couple of clicks to every hostname. For example, www.domain.com can be your main site, which uses a server's shared IP, and shop.domain.com can be a subdomain where you offer goods or services online and it might have a dedicated IP together with an SSL certificate. You can change the IP which a domain uses through the Hosted Domains section where you can also keep track which IPs are in use and which ones are available. You can also set a few of your websites to use a single dedicated IP given that there is no SSL installed for it.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers

In case you acquire a dedicated server, you probably would like to run some web app or host a lot of Internet sites, so we supply three dedicated IPs for free with every single package and you can use them as you decide - a software server, an SSL certificate, even child name servers for a domain name that you have registered here or via another company. The last option is very useful when you use your dedicated server to host users' Internet sites due to the fact that it'll give you trustworthiness and anonymity as a website hosting supplier. The server billing Control Panel will enable you to add extra IPs as well - the upgrade is in increments of three and takes just a few clicks in the Upgrades section, so you will be able to go ahead and start using your brand new dedicated IP addresses just a couple of minutes after you submit your order.
