All devices on the World Wide Web are identified by a specific number called an IP address, for example 123.123.123.123. If you have a site, the domain name that you enter in order to access it is for your convenience, but the server where your website files are still has an IP. As there are many more sites and devices than there're IPs, all of the shared website hosting servers have a number of sites under the very same IP, whereas when you use a dedicated server you'll have a dedicated IP as well. Even in the first case though, you'll be able to obtain a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. One benefit would be that you may have far better search engine positions because a dedicated IP usually means a faster loading site. In addition, you need such an IP in case you intend to get an SSL certificate for your site and secure the data that your visitors submit on it.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Hosting

We provide dedicated IPs with all our shared hosting plans irrespective of the data center location and you're able to get one or several IPs via your Hepsia Control Panel. A fresh section will appear in your account and you can request, delete or view your IPs with several clicks. You will be able to decide what number of domains or subdomains will use a particular IP as you can assign one with a couple of clicks to any hostname. For instance, www.domain.com can be the main site, that uses a server's shared IP, and shop.domain.com can be your subdomain where you offer services or goods online and it might have a dedicated IP together with an SSL certificate. You can change the IP that a site uses via the Hosted Domains section where you can also keep track which IPs are in use and which ones are available. You can also set a couple of of your websites to use the same dedicated IP provided that there is no SSL activated for it.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers

When you obtain a semi-dedicated server account through us, you will get the opportunity to obtain as many dedicated IP addresses as you like depending on your business needs. It will take just a few clicks inside the Hepsia hosting Control Panel to get your new IP plus a few more so as to assign it to a domain or a subdomain. The process is very simple and your website will start loading from the new IP address in no time. Hepsia will enable you to see all IPs that you will be able to use, both shared and dedicated, and which of the latter are available or taken. In case you'd like to use an SSL certificate on any of your websites and you need a dedicated IP for it, you may take full advantage of our SSL order wizard, that can assign a new IP and install the certificate as soon as you send your order, so you won't need to adjust anything in your semi-dedicated web hosting account manually.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers

Because you're able to run almost anything on a dedicated server, all our plans feature 3 dedicated IP addresses included as standard. In case you wish to launch some server software or to install an SSL certificate for a site that you host on the machine, you can 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 have registered through us or elsewhere then use them to point other domains to the dedicated server. If you have a hosting company, for instance, the aforementioned option will contribute to your credibility as an independent provider. In case you need more IPs than the three the packages include, you're able to purchase extra ones in increments of 3 either throughout the registration process or from your billing Control Panel at any time.
