If you host a site on a server, it employs the server's shared IP - a unique number that is used to identify every device connected to the World Wide Web. The domain name which you use for the website is for quick access and convenience of the visitors, but on a more basic level, their web browser connects to the IP address of the server. Because there are a lot more sites than IP addresses, shared hosting servers use the same IP for a number of websites even if they belong to several users. While this does not affect your site performance directly, using a dedicated IP may slightly boost the loading speed of a certain website, granting it better positions in search engine results. Such an IP is required for the installation of an SSL certificate as well, so if you wish to secure the payment or login info that your site visitors enter, you should have an IP in addition to the SSL.

Dedicated IP Address in Cloud Website Hosting

If you use some of our cloud website hosting packages, you can add a dedicated IP address to your account without any difficulty and assign it to a domain or subdomain with just a few clicks. This is valid whichever data center you have picked for the account during the signup process, thus it is possible to take advantage of this feature in our US, UK and AU facilities. This way, you can have a dedicated IP for an e-commerce site, for example, whereas a forum attached to it can use the server's shared IP because you can adjust each domain or subdomain independently through the Hosted Domains part of your Hepsia Control Panel. If you would like a dedicated IP for an SSL certificate and you obtain the SSL through us, you will be able to use the auto-configuration tool, that will assign an IP and set up the SSL automatically for the website where you want to use them.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers

The Hepsia Control Panel, which is provided with our semi-dedicated server plans, will make it really easy to obtain a dedicated IP address and use it for each site that you have in the account irrespective of whether it's under a domain or a subdomain. With just a couple of clicks you're able to order the IP and when our system assigns it, you'll be able to set it for one or several sites from the Hosted Domains part of the Control Panel. In the same place you will also be able to find what IP is used by each and every domain or subdomain, a long list of the dedicated IPs as well as if and what website they're assigned to? If the IP you need is for an SSL certificate, you can take full advantage of our user-friendly SSL wizard which will make the overall process very easy due to the fact that it will request and assign an IP to the preferred domain/subdomain and then set up the SSL without any action on your side other than placing your order.

Dedicated IP Address in VPS Servers

All of our VPS hosting plans come with one dedicated IP address by default and in case you pick a web hosting Control Panel (Hepsia, DirectAdmin, cPanel) during the signup process, you'll acquire an extra one as well free of charge. You're able to employ them as you decide - to access online content, to run a web app, to set up an SSL certificate, or even to register private name servers for any website that you have and use the latter for any other website that you intend to host on your server. The billing Control Panel where you will be able to take care of all of the plan renewals, upgrades as well as domain name registrations will allow you to order more dedicated IPs in case you need them for any purpose. A few minutes later the IPs will be assigned to your Virtual Server and you will be able to use them immediately.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers

All dedicated web hosting plans that we supply feature three dedicated IP addresses by default and free of charge. You're able to use them for any purpose depending on the content that you've got on the server - a video game server or a Voice-Over-IP application, an SSL certificate for a website that you host, private name servers for a reseller domain that your clients may use to direct domains to their hosting accounts, etceterra. What's more, you can acquire additional dedicated IPs through the Upgrades part of your billing Control Panel in case you need more than the ones which come with your plan. You will be able to acquire the IPs in sets of three and they'll be added to your dedicated server shortly after you send your order, which means that you can use them without delays.
