All devices on the World Wide Web are recognized by a specific number called an IP address, for example 123.123.123.123. When you have a site, the domain that you enter to access it is for your convenience, yet the server where the site files are still has an IP. Due to the fact that there are far more websites and devices than there're IP addresses, all shared website hosting servers have a number of sites under an identical IP, whereas with a dedicated server you will have a dedicated IP as well. Even in the first case though, you can acquire a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. One advantage would be that you will have better search engine rankings since a dedicated IP usually means a quicker loading site. Also, you need such an IP if you want to purchase an SSL certificate for your site and protect the information that visitors submit on it.
Dedicated IP Address in Website Hosting
If you host your sites on our innovative cloud platform and you have a website hosting package, you will be able to add a dedicated IP to your account at any moment and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a couple of clicks. The aforementioned option is accessible in all of the data centers where we supply services - Chicago (US), Coventry (UK) and Sydney (AU), so regardless of your choice throughout the registration process, you are able to get a dedicated IP for your sites. You'll be able to add or remove an IPas well as to keep track of the free and used ones at any moment. If any of the IPs that you obtain will be used for an SSL certificate, you may enable the automatic configuration attribute in our SSL order wizard then our system will request and assign the IP before it installs the certificate automatically. Our versatile platform will allow you to use a dedicated IP address for a variety of websites as well if it's not in use by an SSL.
Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers
When you have a semi-dedicated server account, adding your new dedicated IP takes no more than a few clicks. Our Hepsia Control Panel is very easy and intuitive to use, so even when you haven't had a website hosting account previously, you will not encounter any kind of difficulties to order and assign a dedicated IP address. Each domain or subdomain in the account can use its own IP address as an alternative to the server's shared one and you're able to make this change inside the Hosted Domains section, where you can also view all IPs that your sites can use as well as if a dedicated IP is available or you are already using it. If you wish to have an IP for an SSL certificate, we have an SSL order instrument through which you're able to select everything to be set up automatically. With this feature, our system will change the IP of the desired domain/subdomain to a dedicated one and it'll set up your certificate in a couple of minutes, so you shall not need to do anything on your end except for authorizing your SSL request through e-mail.
Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers
As you'll be able to run pretty much anything on a dedicated server, all our packages feature 3 dedicated IP addresses included by default. If you want to launch some server software or to activate an SSL certificate for a site that you host on the machine, you'll be able to use the IPs that we provide without charge. You may also register child name servers with one or two of the IPs for any website name that you have registered through our company or any place else and use them to direct other domains to the dedicated server. If you have a hosting company, for instance, this option will contribute to your credibility as a standalone service provider. If you need more IP addresses than the three the packages come with, you'll be able to purchase additional ones in increments of three either throughout the signup process or through your billing Control Panel any time.
