All devices on the Internet are recognized by a specific number called an IP address, for instance 123.123.123.123. In case you have a site, the domain name that you enter to be able to access it is for your convenience, however the server where your site files are still has an IP. Considering that there are a lot more sites and devices than there're IPs, all shared website hosting servers have a number of websites under the same IP, whereas with a dedicated server you'll be given a dedicated IP too. Even in the first case though, you will be able to get a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. An advantage would be that you will have far better search engine rankings since a dedicated IP generally means a quicker loading site. Furthermore, you need such an IP in case you want to obtain an SSL certificate for your website and protect the info that your visitors submit on it.
Dedicated IP Address in Web Hosting
We supply dedicated IP addresses with all our Linux web hosting regardless of the data center location and you'll be able to obtain one or several IPs through your Hepsia Control Panel. An extra section will appear in your account and you can request, view or delete your IPs with several clicks. You are able to choose how many websites or subdomains will use a particular IP since you can assign one with a few clicks to any hostname. To give an example, www.domain.com can be your main site, that uses a server's shared IP, whereas shop.domain.com can be your subdomain where you offer goods or services online and it could have a dedicated IP address combined with an SSL certificate. You can change the IP which a site uses from the Hosted Domains section where you can also keep track which IPs are in use and which ones are available. You can also set some of your sites to use one and the same dedicated IP given that there is no SSL activated for it.
Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Hosting
With just a few clicks inside your Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to add one or a variety of dedicated IP addresses to your Linux semi-dedicated hosting package and assign them to your websites. The Hosted Domains section of Hepsia will allow you to find the available IPs and to keep track of the ones that are in use with ease. If you wish to acquire a new IP for an SSL certificate, you can use the auto-configuration function, that's available in our SSL order wizard. When you enable this feature, you won't have to do anything after you send in your order as our system will request a dedicated IP address, assign it to the domain or subdomain involved, then install the SSL certificate - all of this automatically and without any action on your end. In this way, you're able to protect the data that visitors submit on your website even if you do not have any previous experience with such matters.
Dedicated IP Address in VPS
All of our VPS packages feature one dedicated IP by default and in case you obtain a website hosting Control Panel (cPanel, DirectAdmin, Hepsia) during the signup process, you'll get an additional one as well free of cost. You're able to use them as you see fit - to access online content, to run a web application, to set up an SSL certificate, or even to register private name servers for any domain which you have and use the latter for any other domain that you plan to host on your server. The billing Control Panel where you'll be able to take care of all plan renewals, upgrades as well as domain registrations will enable you to order additional dedicated IPs in case you need them for any purpose. Just a few minutes later the IPs will be assigned to your Virtual Server and you can use them straight away.
Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Hosting
All the dedicated servers hosting packages that we offer include 3 dedicated IP addresses by default and for free. You're able to employ them for any purpose according to the content that you have on the server - a video game server or a Voice-Over-IP app, an SSL certificate for a site that you host, private name servers for a reseller domain which your clients can use to redirect domains to their website hosting accounts, and much more. What's more, you can acquire extra dedicated IP addresses from the Upgrades part of your billing Control Panel if you need more than the ones that come with your plan. You'll be able to obtain the IPs in groups of three and they will be added to your dedicated server shortly after you submit your order, so that you can start using them with no delays.
