If you host a website on a server, it employs the server's shared IP address - an exclusive number that is used to identify any device connected to the Net. The domain name that you use for the website is for quick access and convenience of the site visitors, but on a lower level, their Internet browser connects to the IP of the server. As there are far more websites than IPs, shared website hosting servers use the same IP for multiple websites even if they are owned by different users. While this does not affect the website performance directly, using a dedicated IP may slightly increase the loading speed of a certain website, providing it better positions in search engine results. Such an IP is required for the setup of an SSL certificate as well, so when you plan to protect the payment or login details that your site visitors submit, you should have an IP in addition to the SSL.
Dedicated IP Address in Web Hosting
When you use any of our web hosting packages, you will be able to add a dedicated IP address to your account without difficulty and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a few clicks. This is valid no matter which data center you have selected for your account throughout the sign-up process, therefore you'll be able to use this feature in our US, UK and AU facilities. This way, you can have a dedicated IP for an e-commerce site, for example, whereas a forum attached to it can use the server's shared IP because you can adjust each domain or subdomain independently through the Hosted Domains area of your Hepsia Control Panel. If you would like a dedicated IP for an SSL certificate and you get the SSL through us, you're able to use our auto-configuration instrument, that will assign an IP and set up the SSL automatically for the site where you wish to use them.
Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers
With just a few clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to add one or a variety of dedicated IP addresses to your semi-dedicated server and assign them to your sites. The Hosted Domains section of Hepsia will allow you to see the available IPs and to monitor those that are in use in no time. Provided you wish to acquire a new IP for an SSL certificate, you'll be able to use the auto-configuration function, that is available in our SSL order wizard. If you activate this feature, you won't have to do anything after you submit your order because our system will request a dedicated IP address, assign it to the domain or subdomain involved, then install the SSL certificate - all this automatically and without any action on your end. This way, you can protect the information that visitors submit on your site even when you lack previous experience with this kind of matters.
Dedicated IP Address in VPS Servers
All of our VPS servers provide you with one dedicated IP by default and if you choose a web hosting Control Panel (Hepsia, DirectAdmin, cPanel) throughout the signup process, you will get a second one too for free. You are able to use them the way you like - to access site content, to manage a web app, to install an SSL certificate, or even to register private name servers for any domain that you have and use the latter for any other website that you intend to host on the server. The billing Control Panel where you are able to manage all the plan renewals, upgrades as well as domain registrations will enable you to order more dedicated IP addresses in case you need them for any purpose. Just a few minutes later the IPs will be assigned to your Virtual Server and you will be able to use them straight away.
Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers
All dedicated servers that we supply feature 3 dedicated IP addresses as standard and for free. You will be able to employ them for any kind of purpose based on the content that you have on the server - an online game server or a Voice-Over-IP app, an SSL certificate for a website that you host, private name servers for a reseller domain that your clients may use to redirect domains to their hosting accounts, and many more. You'll also be able to order additional dedicated IPs from the Upgrades part of your billing Control Panel in case you need more than the ones which come with your server. You'll be able to get the IPs in groups of three and they shall be added to your dedicated server right after you submit your order, which means that you can use them with no delays.
