If you host a site on a server, it works by using the server's shared IP address - a unique number that is used to identify any device connected to the Net. The website name which you use for the site is for easy access and convenience of the visitors, but on a more basic level, their browser connects to the IP of the server. Since there are many more websites than IPs, shared web hosting servers use the same IP for many different websites even if they belong to different users. Even though this doesn't affect the site performance directly, having a dedicated IP can slightly increase the loading speed of a particular website, giving it higher rankings in search engine results. Such an IP is needed for the setup of an SSL certificate too, so when you want to protect the payment or login information that your website visitors enter, you will need an IP together with the SSL.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Hosting

Using a shared hosting account on our cloud platform, you can 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 United States, Great Britain or Australia. This can be done from the Hosted Domains section of the intuitive and user-friendly Hepsia Control Panel where you can also monitor what IPs are available, what are in use and what websites they're allotted to. In case you want to use an SSL certificate in order to secure the information of your visitors and you get it through us, our system can assign a dedicated IP and install the SSL for you, so you will not need to do anything manually on your end. Meanwhile, you may still have a website in a subdomain as an add-on to the main one under a shared IP address - a community forum where users can share their opinion about your services, for example.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Hosting

In case you have a semi-dedicated server account, adding a new dedicated IP takes no more than a few clicks. Our Hepsia Control Panel is very easy and intuitive to use, so even if you haven't had a hosting account previously, you will not experience any difficulties to order and assign a dedicated IP. Any domain or subdomain within the account can use its own IP address other than the server's shared one and you'll be able to make this change inside the Hosted Domains section, where you will also view all IPs that your websites can use as well as if a dedicated IP is accessible or you are already using it. If you want 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. Using this particular feature, our system will change the IP of the desired domain/subdomain to a dedicated one and it'll set up your certificate within a matter of minutes, so you won't need to do anything on your end other than authorizing your SSL request through e-mail.

Dedicated IP Address in VPS Hosting

In case you acquire a virtual private server from our company, you will have a dedicated IP address automatically and an extra one when you obtain a hosting Control Panel (Hepsia, cPanel, DirectAdmin). You'll be able to use the IPs for any sort of purpose - an Internet site, some web app such as a VOIP server, even for private name servers that you are able to use to point to your VPS any domain which you plan to host. Additionally, you can add more dedicated IPs to your VPS account every time you need them. This can be done through the billing Control Panel that you'll obtain to take care of renewals, upgrade purchases and domain registrations and it takes no more than a few clicks. Soon after you submit your order, the extra IP addresses will be available, so you'll be able to use them the way you like.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Web Hosting

In case you acquire a dedicated server, you probably want to run a web application or host a number of sites, so we provide 3 dedicated IP addresses free of charge with each and every package and you will be able to use them as you see fit - a software server, an SSL certificate, even child name servers for a domain which you've registered here or from another company. The aforementioned option is really helpful in case you use your dedicated server to host users' sites considering that it will give you credibility and anonymity as a web hosting supplier. The server billing Control Panel will enable you to add more IP addresses as well - the upgrade comes in increments of three and takes just a couple of clicks in the Upgrades section, which means that you can go ahead and start using the new dedicated IP addresses just a few minutes after you submit your order.
