If you host a site on a server, it works by using the server's shared IP - a unique number which is used to detect a device connected to the Internet. The website name which you use for the site is for easy access and convenience of the website visitors, but on a lower level, their web browser connects to the IP of the server. Due to the fact that there're many more websites than IPs, shared website hosting servers use a single IP for a variety of websites even in case they belong to different users. While this doesn't affect your site performance directly, using a dedicated IP may slightly enhance the loading speed of a website, giving it better positions in search engine results. Such an IP is needed for the installation of an SSL certificate as well, so if you want to secure the payment or login info that your website visitors submit, you should have an IP in addition to the SSL.
Dedicated IP Address in Shared Hosting
When you use a shared hosting account on our cloud platform, you are able to acquire a dedicated IP address and assign it to any domain or subdomain with a couple of clicks no matter where your account is - in the United States, Great Britain or Australia. This is done through the Hosted Domains area of our 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're assigned to. In case you want to use an SSL certificate to secure the information of your website visitors and you get it through us, our system will assign a dedicated IP and set up the SSL for you, so you won't be required to anything manually on your end. Meanwhile, you can still have a site in a subdomain as an addition to the main one under a shared IP address - a discussion board where users can share their opinion about your services, for instance.
Dedicated IP Address in Semi-dedicated Servers
With only a couple of clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel, you can add one or a variety of dedicated IP addresses to your semi-dedicated hosting service and assign them to your websites. The Hosted Domains section of Hepsia will allow you to view the available IPs and to check the ones which are in use with ease. In case you wish to obtain a new IP for an SSL certificate, you will be able to use the auto-configuration function, which is available in our SSL order wizard. When you enable this feature, you won't have to do anything after you send in your order since our system will request a dedicated IP address, assign it to the domain or subdomain involved, then install the SSL certificate - all of this automatically and without the need of any action on your end. In this way, you will be able to shield the details that visitors post on your website even if you lack previous experience with this type of matters.
