A dedicated IP address is a unique numeric identifier on the net that is given to a device or a site. Shared web hosting servers usually have plenty of websites under the same IP, while dedicated ones use their own IPs that are not shared with others. Even when you use a regular shared account, however, you will be able to purchase a dedicated IP address that will be used only by your sites - one or a few. Considering that this can contribute to the speed of yoursite, it is more likely that the website will get improved search engine result positions. Of course, that isn't the only factor, but it can help you have more website visitors and potential clients. The dedicated IP is also necessary if you want to encrypt the info exchanged between a site and its visitors using an SSL certificate.
Dedicated IP Address in Shared Website Hosting
We offer dedicated IP addresses with all of our shared website hosting whatever the data center location and you can acquire one or several IPs via your Hepsia Control Panel. A fresh section will appear in your account and you are able to request, delete or view your IPs with just a couple of clicks. You're able to decide what number of sites or subdomains will use a given IP since you can assign one with a couple of clicks to any hostname. For instance, www.domain.com can be the main site, which uses a server's shared IP, whereas shop.domain.com can be a subdomain where you offer goods or services on the web and it could have a dedicated IP address in addition to an SSL certificate. You can switch the IP that a site uses through the Hosted Domains section where you can also keep track which IPs are in use and which ones are available. You may also set a couple of of your websites to use one and the same dedicated IP given that there is no SSL set up for it.
Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers
In case you get a dedicated server, you probably would like to run some web app or host a number of sites, so we provide 3 dedicated IP addresses totally free with each plan and you can use them the way you like - a software server, an SSL certificate, even child name servers for a domain name which you have registered here or through another company. The last mentioned option is very useful when you use the dedicated server to host users' Internet sites considering that it will give you authority and anonymity as a hosting company. The server billing Control Panel will enable you to add extra IP addresses as well - the upgrade is in increments of three and takes only a couple of clicks in the Upgrades section, which means that you'll be able to go ahead and employ the new dedicated IPs just a couple of minutes after you submit your order.
