Dedicated IP Address
What exactly is a dedicated IP? Why do you need one for your website?
A dedicated IP address is an exclusive numeric identifier on the world wide web that's assigned 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 aren't shared with anybody else. Even when you use a regular shared account, however, you're able to obtain a dedicated IP address that will be in use only by your websites - one or a few. Considering that this can contribute to the speed of awebsite, it's much more likely that the website will get improved search engine result positions. Certainly, this is not the only factor, but it can help you have more visitors and potential customers. The dedicated IP is also required if you wish to secure the info exchanged between the website and its visitors through an SSL certificate.

Dedicated IP Address in Cloud Web Hosting
When you use a
cloud web hosting account on our cloud platform, you'll be able to obtain a dedicated IP and assign it to any domain or subdomain with a few clicks regardless of where your account is - in the United States, the UK or Australia. This can be done from the Hosted Domains section of the intuitive and user-friendly Hepsia Control Panel where you can also keep track of what IPs are available, what are in use and what sites they are allotted to. If you wish to use an SSL certificate to secure the info of your website visitors and you obtain it from us, our system will assign a dedicated IP and install the SSL for you, so you won't need to do anything manually on your end. In the meantime, you can still have a site in a subdomain as an add-on to the main one under a shared IP address - a message board where users can share thoughts and opinions about your services, for example.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Hosting
In case 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 if you have not had a hosting account previously, you will not experience any kind of difficulties to acquire and assign a dedicated IP address. Each domain or subdomain in the account can use its own IP instead of the server's shared one and you can make this change in the Hosted Domains section, where you will also find all IPs that your sites can use as well as if a dedicated IP is available or you're already using it. In case that you'd like to have an IP for an SSL certificate, we have an SSL order instrument through which you will be able to select everything to be set up automatically. Using this particular feature, our system will modify the IP of the desired domain/subdomain to a dedicated one and it'll set up the certificate within minutes, so you shall not need to do anything on your end except for authorizing the SSL request via email.

Dedicated IP Address in VPS
If you buy a
virtual private server from us, you will receive one dedicated IP address as standard and another one when you acquire a website hosting Control Panel (Hepsia, cPanel, DirectAdmin). You're able to use the IP addresses for any purpose - a site, some web app such as a VOIP server, even for private name servers that you'll be able to use to point to your VPS any domain name that you would like to host. You can even add extra dedicated IPs to the VPS account when you need them. This can be done from the billing Control Panel that you will acquire so as to take care of renewals, upgrade purchases and domain name registrations and it takes no more than a couple of clicks. Soon after you post your order, the additional IP addresses will be at your disposal, so you will be able to use them the way you like.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Hosting
Due to the fact that you are able to run more or less anything on a
dedicated server, all our packages feature three dedicated IP addresses included as standard. If you wish to launch some server software or to install an SSL certificate for a website that you host on the machine, you're able to use the IPs that we provide you with free of charge. In addition, you can register child name servers with one or two of the IPs for any website name that you've registered with us or anywhere else and then employ them to point other domains to the dedicated server. When you manage a web hosting company, for example, the aforementioned option will contribute to your credibility as an independent service provider. In case you need more IP addresses than the three the packages include, you are able to purchase extra ones in increments of three either during the registration process or from your billing Control Panel at any time.
