A dedicated IP address is an exclusive numeric identifier on the net which is allotted to a device or a website. Shared hosting servers usually have a multitude of sites under a single IP, while dedicated ones feature their own IPs which aren't shared with anyone else. Even if you use a typical shared account, however, you will be able to acquire a dedicated IP address that will be used just by your sites - one or a few. Since this can add up to the speed of yourwebsite, it's much more likely that the website will get improved search engine result positions. Of course, this isn't the only factor, but it can help you get more website visitors and potential customers. The dedicated IP is also necessary when you would like to secure the information exchanged between the website and its visitors with an SSL certificate.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Web Hosting

Using a shared web hosting account on our cloud platform, you are able to acquire a dedicated IP and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a couple of clicks regardless of where your account is - in the USA, Great Britain or Australia. This can be done through the Hosted Domains area of the intuitive and user-friendly Hepsia Control Panel where you may also keep track of what IPs are available, what are in use and what sites they're allotted to. In case you wish to use an SSL certificate in order to protect the information of your site visitors and you acquire it through us, our system will assign a dedicated IP and install the SSL for you, so you won't be required to 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 their opinion about your services, for instance.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers

When you acquire a semi-dedicated server account from our company, you'll get the opportunity to obtain as many dedicated IP addresses as you'd like depending on your preferences. It takes just a couple of clicks inside the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel to obtain a new IP plus a few more to assign it to a domain or a subdomain. The process is very simple and your website will start loading from your new IP address very quickly. Hepsia will enable you to see all IP addresses that you're able to use, both shared & dedicated, and which of the latter are free or taken. If you'd like to use an SSL certificate on any of your sites and you need a dedicated IP for it, you can take full advantage of our SSL order wizard, that can assign a new IP and install the certificate once you submit your order, so you won't need to modify anything in your semi-dedicated website hosting account manually.

Dedicated IP Address in VPS Servers

In case you get a VPS server from our company, you will get a dedicated IP address as standard and another one if you obtain a website hosting Control Panel (Hepsia, cPanel, DirectAdmin). You'll be able to use the IPs for any purpose - a site, some web app such as a VOIP server, even for private name servers that you'll be able to use to point to your VPS any website that you wish to host. Also, you can add extra dedicated IPs to the VPS account when you need them. This can be done from the billing Control Panel that you will get so as to control renewals, upgrades and domain registrations and it takes just a couple of clicks. Shortly after you post your order, the extra IP addresses will be available, so you're able to use them the way you like.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers

In case you acquire a dedicated server, you probably would like to run some web application or host numerous websites, so we provide three dedicated IP addresses free of charge with each and every plan and you will be able to use them the way you like - a software server, an SSL certificate, even child name servers for a domain name that you have registered here or via another company. The last mentioned option is very helpful in case you use your dedicated server to host customers' sites because it'll give you authority and anonymity as a hosting supplier. The server billing Control Panel will enable you to add extra IP addresses as well - the upgrade comes in increments of three and takes only a few clicks in the Upgrades section, so you'll be able to go ahead and start using the new dedicated IPs just a few minutes after you send your order.
