All devices on the World Wide Web are recognized by a special number called an IP address, for example 123.123.123.123. In case you have a site, the domain name that you enter to access it is for your convenience, but the server where your site files are still has an IP address. As there are far more sites and devices than there're IPs, all the shared hosting servers have a number of sites under an identical IP, while with a dedicated server you'll be given a dedicated IP as well. Even in the first case though, you're able to obtain a dedicated IP for your sites and host them on a shared server. One benefit would be that you'll enjoy superior search engine positions as a dedicated IP usually means a quicker loading site. In addition, you need such an IP when you intend to acquire an SSL certificate for your site and shield the data that visitors submit on it.
Dedicated IP Address in Cloud Website Hosting
Using a cloud website hosting account on our cloud platform, you'll be able to acquire a dedicated IP and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a few clicks regardless of where your account is - in the US, Britain or Australia. This can be done from the Hosted Domains area of the intuitive and user-friendly Hepsia Control Panel where you can also monitor what IPs are available, what are in use and what sites they're allotted to. When you want to use an SSL certificate so as to protect the information of your visitors and you obtain it from us, our system will assign a dedicated IP and install the SSL for you, so you will not be required to anything manually on your end. Meanwhile, you may still have a site in a subdomain as an addition to the main one under a shared IP - a discussion board where users can share thoughts and opinions about your services, for example.
Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers
When you purchase a semi-dedicated server account from us, you have the option to obtain as many dedicated IPs as you'd like depending on your needs. It will take a few clicks inside the Hepsia hosting Control Panel to buy your new IP plus a few more so as to assign it to a domain or a subdomain. The process is really easy and your website will start loading from your new IP address in a few minutes. Hepsia will allow you to view all of the IP addresses that you are able to use, both shared and dedicated, and which of the latter are available or taken. Provided you'd like to use an SSL certificate on any of your websites and you want a dedicated IP for it, you may take full advantage of our SSL order wizard, that will assign a new IP and install the certificate the moment you send your order, so you will not need to change anything in your semi-dedicated website hosting account by yourself.
Dedicated IP Address in VPS Servers
Our VPS plans feature one dedicated IP by default and if you obtain a hosting Control Panel (cPanel, DirectAdmin, Hepsia) during the registration process, you will get a second one too at no extra cost. You can employ them the way you like - to access online content, to manage a web application, to set up an SSL certificate, or even to register private name servers for any domain name which you have and use the latter for any other domain that you plan to host on the server. The billing Control Panel where you are able to manage all plan renewals, upgrades and domain registrations will allow you to order additional dedicated IP addresses in case you need them for any purpose. A few minutes later the IPs will be assigned to your Virtual Server and you can use them right away.
Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers
All of the Linux dedicated servers that we provide include three dedicated IP addresses by default and for free. You will be able to use them for any purpose depending on the content that you've got on your server - an online game server or a Voice-Over-IP application, an SSL certificate for a site that you host, private name servers for a reseller domain which your clients can use to direct domains to their website hosting accounts, etceterra. You will also be able to acquire additional dedicated IP addresses from the Upgrades part of your billing Control Panel in case you need more than the ones that come with the server. You're able to buy the IPs in sets of three and they will be added to your dedicated server shortly after you send your order, which means that you can use them with no delays.
