When you host a website on a server, it employs the server's shared IP address - a special number that's used to identify any kind of device connected to the World Wide Web. The domain name which you use for the site is for quick access and convenience of the visitors, but on a lower level, their Internet browser connects to the IP address of the server. Because there're a lot more websites than IP addresses, shared website hosting servers use the very same IP for several websites even in case they are owned by different users. Even though this doesn't affect the site performance directly, using a dedicated IP may slightly boost the loading speed of a certain website, providing it superior rankings in search engine results. Such an IP is necessary for the installation of an SSL certificate as well, so when you wish to protect the payment or login data that your site visitors enter, you'll need an IP in addition to the SSL.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Website Hosting

We provide you with dedicated IPs with all of our Linux shared website hosting whatever the data center location and you're able to get one or several IPs through your Hepsia Control Panel. An extra section will appear as part of your account and you can request, delete or view your IPs with just a couple of clicks. You will be able to decide how many websites or subdomains will use a particular IP as you can assign one with a couple of clicks to any hostname. To give an example, www.domain.com can be your main site, that uses a server's shared IP, whereas shop.domain.com can be the subdomain where you offer goods or services on the web and it can have a dedicated IP address in addition to an SSL certificate. You can change the IP that a domain uses from 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 sites to use a single dedicated IP provided that there is no SSL set up for it.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers

When you have a semi-dedicated server account, adding a new dedicated IP address takes only a couple of clicks. Our Hepsia Control Panel is very easy and intuitive to use, so even if you have not had a web hosting account before, you will not have any kind of difficulties to get and assign a dedicated IP address. Any domain or subdomain within the account can use its own IP address instead of the server's shared one and you're able to make this change in the Hosted Domains section, where you will also find all IPs that your websites can use and if a dedicated IP is available or you are already using it. If you'd like to have an IP for an SSL certificate, we have an SSL order tool through which you'll be able to select everything to be set up automatically. With this feature, our system will change the IP of the desired domain/subdomain to a dedicated one and it'll install the certificate in a couple of minutes, so you shall not have to do anything on your end apart from authorizing your SSL request through e-mail.

Your addresses can be used for virtually any objective - an Internet site in case you want to install an SSL certificate or a server IP in case you plan to run some application such as VOIP software, for example. You can also use the IPs to make child name servers for one or multiple domains that you have and after that you can set them as NS records for any other domain that you'd like to redirect to your Virtual Server. In case you need more dedicated IPs, it will take you only a few clicks in your billing Control Panel to get them and they'll be allotted to your server in no time.
