All devices on the Web are identified by a special number called an IP address, for instance 123.123.123.123. If you have a website, the domain name that you enter to be able to open it is to save you time, yet the server where the site files are still has an IP address. Since there are a lot more sites and devices than there're IPs, all shared website hosting servers have a number of sites under an identical IP, whereas with a dedicated server you'll have a dedicated IP too. Even in the first case though, you're able to get a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. An advantage would be that you may get far better search engine positions since a dedicated IP often means a quicker loading site. Furthermore, you need such an IP if you intend to buy an SSL certificate for your website and shield the data that visitors submit on it.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Website Hosting

Using a shared website hosting account on our cloud platform, you are able to buy a dedicated IP address and assign it to any domain or subdomain with a couple of clicks no matter where your account is - in the USA, the UK or Australia. This can be done through the Hosted Domains part of the intuitive and user-friendly Hepsia Control Panel where you may also monitor what IPs are available, what are in use and what sites they're assigned to. If you would like to use an SSL certificate to secure the info of your website visitors and you get it through our company, our system can assign a dedicated IP and install the SSL for you, so you won't need to do anything manually on your end. Meanwhile, you may still have a site in a subdomain as an add-on to the main one under a shared IP - a community forum where users can share thoughts and opinions about your services, for instance.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Hosting

In case you have a semi-dedicated server account, adding a new dedicated IP takes just a couple of clicks. Our Hepsia Control Panel is very easy and intuitive to use, so even if you have not had a hosting account before, you won't experience any difficulties to get and assign a dedicated IP address. Every domain or subdomain in the account can use its own IP address instead of the server's shared one and you're able to make this change inside the Hosted Domains section, where you can also see all IPs that your websites can use as well as if a dedicated IP is available or you're already using it. In case that you want an IP for an SSL certificate, we have an SSL order tool through which you are able to select everything to be set up automatically. With this feature, our system will modify the IP of the desired domain/subdomain to a dedicated one and it'll install your certificate within minutes, so you won't have to do anything on your end other than authorizing your SSL order via e-mail.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Hosting

Since all of our Linux dedicated servers hosting packages offer 3 dedicated IP addresses included in the plans by default, we'll give you a head start if you'd like to run any application that requires this type of an IP. We supply them free of cost and you're able to use them for as long as you use your server for anything you'd like - child name servers for any domain name that you host, an SSL certificate for any site on the server, a software server (online games, VOIP), etc. Through the Upgrades menu in the billing Control Panel that you'll receive to control renewals, service upgrades and domain registrations, you'll also be able to buy more dedicated IP addresses in sets of three at any time. They will be assigned to your server in minutes, so you can start using them for your sites and web-based applications right away.
