All devices on the Internet are recognized by a specific number called an IP address, for instance 123.123.123.123. In case you have a site, the domain that you enter to load it is to save you time, yet the server where the site files are still has an IP. Since there're a lot more websites and devices than there are IP addresses, all the shared hosting servers have a number of websites under an identical IP, while when you use a dedicated server you'll have a dedicated IP as well. Even in the first case though, you're able to acquire a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. One advantage would be that you'll have superior search engine positions since a dedicated IP usually means a faster loading site. Also, you need such an IP if you want to purchase an SSL certificate for your site and protect the information that visitors submit on it.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Website Hosting

When you use any of our shared website hosting packages, you can add a dedicated IP to your account with ease and assign it to a domain or subdomain with just a couple of clicks. This is valid whichever data center you've chosen for your account throughout the registration process, which means that it is possible to take full advantage of this feature in our US, UK and AU facilities. In this way, you can have a dedicated IP for an e-commerce site, for instance, while a forum attached to it can use the server's shared IP since you can modify each and every domain or subdomain independently from 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 from us, you'll be able to use the auto-configuration tool, that will assign an IP and set up the SSL automatically for the site where you would like to use them.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Hosting

When you get a semi-dedicated server account through us, you will have the option to obtain as many dedicated IP addresses as you need depending on the needs you have. It takes just a couple of clicks inside the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel to buy your new IP and a few more to assign it to a domain or a subdomain. The process is very simple and your website will start opening from your new IP address in no time. Hepsia will allow you to see all the IPs which you're able to use, both shared and dedicated, and which of the latter are free or taken. Provided you want to use an SSL certificate on any of your websites and you need a dedicated IP for it, you may take advantage of our SSL order wizard, that will assign a new IP and set up the certificate the moment you submit your order, so you don't need to adjust anything in your semi-dedicated web hosting account manually.

Dedicated IP Address in VPS

All of our Linux VPS feature one dedicated IP by default and in case you obtain a web hosting Control Panel (DirectAdmin, Hepsia, cPanel) during the registration process, you'll acquire an additional one as well without charge. You are able to employ them the way you like - to access website 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 domain that you plan to host on your server. The billing Control Panel where you'll be able to take care of all the plan renewals, upgrades as well as domain name registrations will enable you to order extra dedicated IPs when you need them for any purpose. Just a few minutes later the IPs will be assigned to your Virtual Server and you can use them straight away.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Hosting

In case you get a dedicated server, you probably would like to run a web app or host a number of Internet sites, so we supply three dedicated IP addresses completely free with each plan and you're able to use them the way you like - a software server, an SSL certificate, even child name servers for a domain name which you've registered here or via another company. The aforementioned option is very helpful when you use your dedicated server to host users' Internet sites as it will give you credibility and anonymity as a website hosting service provider. The server billing Control Panel will allow you to add additional IP addresses as well - the upgrade comes in increments of three and takes just a couple of clicks in the Upgrades section, which means that you can go ahead and employ your brand new dedicated IPs just a few minutes after you send your order.
