A dedicated IP address is a unique numeric identifier on the Internet that's allotted to a device or a site. Shared hosting servers usually have a large number of websites under a single IP, while dedicated ones have their own IPs that are not shared with anyone else. Even when you use a typical shared account, however, it is possible to get a dedicated IP address that will be used just by your websites - one or a few. Because this can add up to the speed of awebsite, it is more likely that the website will get improved search engine result positions. Of course, that isn't the only factor, but it is likely to help you get more site visitors and prospective customers. The dedicated IP is also necessary when you want to encode the info exchanged between the website and its visitors through an SSL certificate.
Dedicated IP Address in Cloud Web Hosting
In case you host your sites on our revolutionary cloud platform and you have a cloud web hosting plan, you can add a dedicated IP to your account at any time and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a few clicks. The aforementioned option is accessible in all the data centers where we offer services - Chicago (US), Coventry (UK) and Sydney (AU), so whatever your choice during the registration process, you can get a dedicated IP address for your websites. You'll be able to add or remove an IPas well as to keep track of the free and used ones at any time. If any of the IPs that you buy will be used for an SSL certificate, you may enable the automatic configuration feature in our SSL order wizard then our system will request and assign the IP before it sets up the certificate automatically. Our flexible platform will enable you to use a dedicated IP for a variety of websites as well if it is not in use by an SSL.
Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers
When you have a semi-dedicated server account, adding your new dedicated IP address takes just a few clicks. Our Hepsia Control Panel is very easy and intuitive to use, so even when you haven't had a web hosting account previously, you won't have any kind of difficulties to order and assign a dedicated IP. Each domain or subdomain inside the account can use its own IP rather than the server's shared one and you will be able to make this change from the Hosted Domains section, where you can also find all IPs that your sites can use and if a dedicated IP is available or you're already using it. In case that you need an IP for an SSL certificate, we have an SSL order instrument through which you're able to select everything to be installed automatically. With this feature, our system will change the IP address of the desired domain/subdomain to a dedicated one and it will set up your certificate within a matter of minutes, so you will not need to do anything on your end except for authorizing your SSL request via electronic mail.
Dedicated IP Address in VPS Servers
All of our Linux VPS servers include one dedicated IP address as standard and when you pick a web hosting Control Panel (Hepsia, cPanel, DirectAdmin) throughout the registration process, you'll acquire an extra one as well absolutely free. You can employ them as you decide - to access online content, to run a web application, to set up an SSL certificate, or even to register private name servers for any domain that you have and use the latter for any other website that you want to host on your server. The billing Control Panel where you are able to take care of all of the plan renewals, upgrades as well as domain registrations will enable you to order more dedicated IP addresses if you need them for any purpose. A couple of minutes later the IPs will be assigned to your Virtual Server and you can use them straight away.
Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers
Since all of our dedicated servers offer three dedicated IP addresses provided in the plans by default, we'll give you a head start in case you want to run any application which needs this type of an IP. We provide them at no charge and you will be able to use them for as long as you use the server for anything you'd like - child name servers for any domain that you host, an SSL certificate for any website on the server, a software server (games, VOIP), etc. Through the Upgrades menu in the billing Control Panel that you will get to control renewals, service upgrades and domain registrations, you will also be able to purchase more dedicated IPs in groups of three any time. They will be assigned to your server within minutes, so you can start using them for your sites and web-based apps without delay.
