All devices on the Internet are recognized by a special number called an IP address, such as 123.123.123.123. If you have a site, the domain that you enter to be able to load it is for your convenience, yet the server where the website files are still has an IP. Since there are a lot more websites and devices than there are IPs, all of the shared web hosting servers have a number of websites under the same IP, whereas when you use a dedicated server you'll have a dedicated IP too. Even in the first case though, you will be able to get a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. An advantage would be that you'll have far better search engine positions as a dedicated IP often means a faster loading website. Furthermore, you need such an IP if you plan to obtain an SSL certificate for your site and shield the data that visitors submit on it.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Hosting

We provide dedicated IP addresses with all of our Linux shared hosting regardless of the data center location and you can purchase one or several IPs via your Hepsia Control Panel. A new section will show up in your account and you are able to request, delete or view your IPs with just a few clicks. You can choose what number of domains or subdomains will use a certain IP since you can assign one with a few clicks to any hostname. For example, www.domain.com can be your main website, which uses a server's shared IP, while shop.domain.com can be a subdomain where you offer services or goods on the web and it could have a dedicated IP address in addition to an SSL certificate. You can switch 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 sites to use a single dedicated IP provided that there is no SSL installed for it.

Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Hosting

When you get a semi-dedicated server account through us, you'll have the option to get as many dedicated IP addresses as you would like depending on the needs you have. It takes just a few clicks in the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel to buy your new IP plus a couple of more to assign it to a domain or a subdomain. The whole process is really easy and your website will start loading from the new IP address within minutes. Hepsia will allow you to see all the IP addresses which you can use, both shared & dedicated, and which of the latter are available or taken. Provided you would like to use an SSL certificate on some of your websites and you need a dedicated IP for it, you can take full advantage of our SSL order wizard, which can assign a new IP and set up the certificate the moment you submit your order, so you will not need to customize anything in your semi-dedicated website hosting account by yourself.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Hosting

Because you're able to run almost anything on a dedicated server, all our plans feature 3 dedicated IP addresses included by default. In case you would like to launch some server software or to activate an SSL certificate for a site that you host on the machine, you're able to use the IPs which we supply without charge. You may also register child name servers with one or two of the IPs for any domain name that you've registered through our company or any place else then employ them to point other domains to the dedicated server. If you own a website hosting company, for example, this option will contribute to your credibility as an independent provider. If you need more IP addresses than the three the plans include, you can buy extra ones in increments of 3 either during the signup process or through your billing Control Panel at any time.
