When you host a site on a server, it employs the server's shared IP address - a unique number that's used to detect a device connected to the Net. The website name which you use for the website is for easy accessibility and convenience of the visitors, but on a lower level, their browser connects to the IP address of the server. Since there're a lot more sites than IPs, shared web hosting servers use the very same IP for several sites even in case they belong to several users. Even though this does not affect the website performance directly, using a dedicated IP can slightly boost the loading speed of a certain site, providing it better rankings in search engine results. Such an IP is needed for the setup of an SSL certificate as well, so if you would like to protect the payment or login information that your site visitors type in, you need an IP in addition to the SSL.

Dedicated IP Address in Hosting

We supply dedicated IPs with all our hosting whatever the data center location and you will be able to purchase one or several IPs using your Hepsia Control Panel. A new section will appear as part of your account and you are able to request, view or delete your IPs with just a few clicks. You're able to choose what number of websites or subdomains will use a particular IP as you can assign one with a couple of clicks to every hostname. For instance, www.domain.com can be your main website, that uses a server's shared IP, whereas shop.domain.com can be a subdomain where you offer services or goods on the internet and it can have a dedicated IP address combined with an SSL certificate. You can switch the IP which a website 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 the same dedicated IP given that there's no SSL installed for it.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers

With only a few clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to add one or a variety of dedicated IP addresses to your semi-dedicated server and assign them to your sites. The Hosted Domains section of Hepsia will help you see the available IPs and to keep track of those that are in use with ease. If you wish to acquire a new IP for an SSL certificate, you will be able to use the auto-configuration function, that's available in our SSL order wizard. When you enable this option, you won't have to do anything after you send in your order as our system will request a dedicated IP, assign it to the domain or subdomain in question, then install the SSL certificate - all of this automatically and without the need of any action on your end. In this way, you're able to shield the data that visitors upload on your website even when you do not have any previous experience with such matters.

Dedicated IP Address in VPS Servers

If you purchase a VPS server from us, you will be given one dedicated IP address automatically and an extra one when you get a web hosting Control Panel (Hepsia, cPanel, DirectAdmin). You are able to use the IPs for any kind of 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 domain name which you wish to host. You may also add extra dedicated IPs to your VPS account any time you need them. This can be done via the billing Control Panel that you'll acquire to manage renewals, upgrades and domain name registrations and it takes no more than a few clicks. After you send your order, the added IP addresses will be available, so you'll be able to use them as you see fit.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers

If you get a dedicated server, you probably plan to run a web application or host a number of Internet sites, so we supply 3 dedicated IPs at no charge with each package and you'll be able to use them as you see fit - a software server, an SSL certificate, even child name servers for a domain that you've registered here or from another company. The aforementioned option is very useful in case you use the dedicated server to host customers' websites considering that it will give you trustworthiness and anonymity as a website hosting company. The server billing Control Panel will make it easier to add additional IP addresses as well - the upgrade is in increments of three and takes only a couple of clicks in the Upgrades section, therefore you are able to go ahead and take advantage of your new dedicated IPs just a couple of minutes after you submit your order.
