If you host a site on a server, it makes use of the server's shared IP address - a special number which is used to identify every device connected to the Net. The domain name which you use for the website is for quick access and convenience of the visitors, but on a lower level, their web browser connects to the IP address of the server. Because there are far more websites than IP addresses, shared web hosting servers use the same IP for several websites even if they belong to several users. While this does not affect the site performance directly, using a dedicated IP can slightly improve the loading speed of a certain website, granting it higher positions in search engine results. Such an IP is needed for the setup of an SSL certificate as well, so when you want to protect the payment or login information that your site visitors enter, you should have an IP in addition to the SSL.
Dedicated IP Address in Cloud Website Hosting
We supply dedicated IPs with all our Linux cloud website hosting irrespective of the data center location and you'll be able to purchase one or several IPs from your Hepsia Control Panel. An extra section will appear in your account and you are able to request, view or delete your IPs with several clicks. You will be able to decide how many domains or subdomains will use a particular IP since you can assign one with a couple of clicks to every hostname. For example, www.domain.com can be the main site, which uses a server's shared IP, and shop.domain.com can be a subdomain where you offer services or goods on the net and it might have a dedicated IP address in addition to an SSL certificate. You can change the IP that a domain uses from the Hosted Domains section where you can also keep track which IPs are in use and which ones are available. You can also set some of your sites to use one and the same dedicated IP as long as there's no SSL installed for it.
Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you have a semi-dedicated server account, adding a new dedicated IP takes just a few clicks. Our Hepsia Control Panel is very easy and intuitive to use, so even when you haven't had a web hosting account previously, you won't experience any difficulties to order and assign a dedicated IP. Any domain or subdomain within the account can use its own IP 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 view all IPs that your websites can use and if a dedicated IP is accessible or you're already using it. If you wish to have an IP for an SSL certificate, we have an SSL order tool through which you'll be able to select everything to be set up automatically. When you use this particular feature, our system will modify the IP of the desired domain/subdomain to a dedicated one and it will install your certificate within minutes, so you won't need to do anything on your end apart from approving your SSL request via e-mail.
Dedicated IP Address in VPS Hosting
All the Linux VPS hosting that we supply come with a dedicated IP, so you will not share your IP with some other customer with an account on the very same physical machine. In case you select a hosting Control Panel for the server throughout the registration process, you will get one more dedicated IP too and you are able to use it for any content that you host on the VPS - an Internet site, an app, an SSL certificate, a VOIP server, and so on. In case you would like to have more IP addresses, you will be able to order them as an additional upgrade from your billing Control Panel and they'll be assigned to your server in a matter of minutes. You can take care of your IPs without difficulty using your web hosting Control Panel and the virtualization admin panel which you'll get to maintain the virtual machine.
Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Web Hosting
Considering that it's possible to run more or less anything on a dedicated server, all of our packages feature three dedicated IP addresses included as standard. If you need to launch some server software or to install an SSL certificate for a site that you host on the machine, you'll be able to use the IPs that we provide free of charge. You can also register child name servers with one or two of the IPs for any website name that you have registered through us or elsewhere then use them to point other domains to the dedicated server. When you have a hosting company, for instance, the aforementioned option will contribute to your credibility as a standalone provider. When you need more IP addresses than the three our plans feature, you're able to buy extra ones in increments of 3 either during the registration process or from your billing Control Panel any time.
