A dedicated IP address is an exclusive numeric identifier on the web that is given to a device or a site. Shared website hosting servers usually have plenty of websites under the very same IP, while dedicated ones feature their own IPs which aren't shared with anybody else. Even if you use a standard shared account, however, you'll be able to get a dedicated IP address that will be in use only by your websites - one or a few. As this can add up to the speed of asite, it's much more likely that the site will get improved search engine result rankings. Certainly, that isn't the only factor, but it can help you find more visitors and potential clients. The dedicated IP is also needed if you want to encrypt the info exchanged between the website and its visitors using an SSL certificate.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Web Hosting

With a shared web hosting account on our cloud platform, you are able to purchase a dedicated IP address and assign it to any domain or subdomain with a few clicks no matter where your account is - in the United States, the UK or Australia. This is done through the Hosted Domains section of our intuitive and user-friendly Hepsia Control Panel where you may also monitor what IPs are available, what are in use and what websites they're assigned to. In case you would like to use an SSL certificate to protect the info of your site visitors and you acquire it through us, our system can assign a dedicated IP and install the SSL for you, so you will not have to do anything manually on your end. Meanwhile, you can still have a website in a subdomain as an add-on 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 Dedicated Hosting

As you're able to run more or less anything on a dedicated server, all of our packages feature 3 dedicated IP addresses included as standard. If you would like to launch some server software or to set up an SSL certificate for a site that you host on the machine, you're able to use the IPs which we supply without charge. In addition, you can register child name servers with one or two of the IP addresses for any website name that you've registered with us or any place else and then use them to direct other domains to the dedicated server. If you run a hosting company, for example, the aforementioned option will contribute to your credibility as a standalone service provider. If you need more IP addresses than the three the packages provide you with, you are able to buy extra ones in increments of 3 either during the signup process or from your billing Control Panel at any time.
