All devices on the Web are recognized by a unique number called an IP address, such as 123.123.123.123. In case you have a website, the domain that you enter in order to open it is for your convenience, yet the server where your site files are still has an IP. Since there are a lot more sites and devices than there are IPs, all shared website hosting servers have a number of websites under the very same IP, while with a dedicated server you'll be given a dedicated IP too. Even in the first case though, you're able to get a dedicated IP for your sites and host them on a shared server. An advantage would be that you will have superior search engine positions because a dedicated IP generally means a faster loading website. Last but not least, you need such an IP if you would like to purchase an SSL certificate for your website and protect the info that visitors submit on it.
Dedicated IP Address in Cloud Web Hosting
With a cloud web hosting account on our cloud platform, you are able to get a dedicated IP address and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a few clicks regardless of where your account is - in the USA, the UK or Australia. This can be done from the Hosted Domains area of our intuitive and user-friendly Hepsia Control Panel where you can also keep track of what IPs are available, what are in use and what websites they're allotted to. In case you would like to use an SSL certificate so as to secure the information of your visitors and you get it through our company, our system can assign a dedicated IP and set up the SSL for you, so you won't need to do anything manually on your end. In the meantime, you can still have a site in a subdomain as an addition to the main one under a shared IP address - a discussion forum where users can share thoughts and opinions about your services, for example.
Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers
In case you purchase a dedicated server, you probably want to run some web application or host a lot of Internet sites, so we supply three dedicated IP addresses absolutely free with each package and you're able to use them as you decide - a software server, an SSL certificate, even child name servers for a domain which you have registered here or through another company. The aforementioned option is really helpful when you use your dedicated server to host clients' Internet sites due to the fact that it'll give you trustworthiness and anonymity as a web hosting supplier. The server billing Control Panel will enable you to add extra IPs as well - the upgrade is in increments of three and takes only a couple of clicks in the Upgrades section, which means that you will be able to go ahead and use your brand new dedicated IP addresses a few minutes after you submit your order.
