All devices on the Web are identified by a special number called an IP address, such as 123.123.123.123. In case you have a site, the domain that you type in order to open it is to save you time, however the server where the site files are still has an IP. Because 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, whereas with a dedicated server you'll have a dedicated IP too. Even in the first case though, you will be able to acquire a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. One benefit would be that you will have far better search engine rankings since a dedicated IP often means a quicker loading site. Last but not least, you need such an IP when you would like to obtain an SSL certificate for your website and shield the data that visitors submit on it.
Dedicated IP Address in Website Hosting
When you use some of our website hosting plans, you'll be able to add a dedicated IP address to your account without difficulty and assign it to a domain or subdomain with just a few clicks. This is valid no matter which data center you've chosen for your account during the signup process, which means that you can use this feature in our US, UK and AU facilities. This way, you can have a dedicated IP for an e-commerce site, for example, while a forum attached to it can use the server's shared IP as you can adjust each domain or subdomain individually through the Hosted Domains area of your Hepsia Control Panel. If you'd like a dedicated IP for an SSL certificate and you acquire the SSL from our company, you're able to use the auto-configuration tool, that will assign an IP and set up the SSL automatically for the website where you want to use them.
Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Hosting
Considering that it is possible to run almost anything on a dedicated server, all of our plans come with three dedicated IP addresses included as standard. If you want to launch some server software or to set up an SSL certificate for a site that you host on the machine, you can use the IPs that we provide absolutely free. In addition, you can register child name servers with one or two of the IP addresses for any domain name that you've registered through our company or somewhere else and use them to point other domains to the dedicated server. When you have a hosting company, for example, the aforementioned option will contribute to your credibility as a standalone service provider. When you need more IPs than the three the packages come with, you are able to buy additional ones in increments of three either throughout the signup process or from your billing Control Panel any time.
