All devices on the Internet are recognized by a specific number called an IP address, for instance 123.123.123.123. When you have a site, the domain that you type in order to load it is to save you time, but the server where your site files are still has an IP address. Due to the fact that there're many more websites and devices than there're IPs, all shared hosting servers have a number of websites under the very same IP, while when you use a dedicated server you'll get a dedicated IP as well. Even in the first case though, you're able to get a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. An advantage would be that you may have better search engine rankings since a dedicated IP usually means a faster loading site. Also, you need such an IP in case you want to obtain an SSL certificate for your website and protect the data that visitors submit on it.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Hosting

We provide dedicated IPs with all our Linux shared hosting services whatever the data center location and you can obtain one or several IPs from your Hepsia Control Panel. A new section will appear in your account and you'll be able to request, view or delete your IPs with just a few clicks. You are able to select what number of sites or subdomains will use a particular IP as you can assign one with a few clicks to any hostname. To give an example, www.domain.com can be your main website, which uses a server's shared IP, whereas shop.domain.com can be your subdomain where you offer goods or services on the net and it can have a dedicated IP in addition to an SSL certificate. You can change the IP that a domain uses through the Hosted Domains section where you can also keep track which IPs are in use and which ones are available. You can also set some of your websites to use a single dedicated IP as long as there's no SSL activated for it.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you obtain a semi-dedicated server account through us, you will get the opportunity to get as many dedicated IP addresses as you like depending on your needs. It takes a few clicks inside the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel to order a new IP and a few more so as to assign it to a domain or a subdomain. The entire process is really easy and your website will start loading from the new IP address in minutes. Hepsia will allow you to view all IP addresses which you'll be able to use, both shared & dedicated, and which of the latter are free or taken. Provided you would like to use an SSL certificate on any of your sites and you want a dedicated IP for it, you can take full advantage of our SSL order wizard, which can assign a new IP and install the certificate as soon as you send your order, so you will not have to adjust anything in your semi-dedicated hosting account by yourself.

Dedicated IP Address in VPS

We give a cost-free dedicated IP address with each Linux virtual private servers that we offer and if you pick a website hosting Control Panel on your VPS order page, you will obtain a second dedicated IP for free. The addresses can be used for virtually any objective - a site in case you need to set up an SSL certificate or a server IP in case you want to run some application like VOIP software, for example. You can also use the dedicated IPs to make child name servers for one or more domains that you have and after that you can set them as NS records for any other domain that you'd like to direct to your Virtual Server. When you need additional dedicated IPs, it will take you just a couple of clicks from your billing Control Panel to obtain them and they'll be allotted to your server within a matter of minutes.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Hosting

Since you are able to run almost anything on a dedicated server, all of our packages come with 3 dedicated IP addresses included as standard. If you would like 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 that we provide absolutely free. In addition, you can register child name servers with one or two of the IPs for any domain name that you have registered with our company or elsewhere and use them to point other domains to the dedicated server. When you have a website hosting company, for instance, this option will contribute to your credibility as an independent service provider. When you need more IP addresses than the three the plans come with, you are able to get extra ones in increments of 3 either throughout the registration process or through your billing Control Panel at any time.
