All devices on the World Wide Web are identified by a specific number called an IP address, such as 123.123.123.123. When you have a site, the domain that you type in order to open it is for your convenience, but the server where your website files are still has an IP. Due to the fact that there are many more websites and devices than there're IPs, all of the shared website 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 too. Even in the first case though, you are able to acquire a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. One benefit would be that you'll have superior search engine positions as a dedicated IP usually means a faster loading website. Last but not least, you need such an IP if you plan to purchase an SSL certificate for your website and shield the info that visitors submit on it.

Dedicated IP Address in Cloud Website Hosting

We offer dedicated IP addresses with all our Linux cloud website hosting regardless of the data center location and you're able to get one or several IPs through your Hepsia Control Panel. A fresh section will appear inside your account and you are able to request, view or delete your IPs with just a couple of clicks. You are able to select how many sites or subdomains will use a particular IP as you can assign one with a couple of clicks to every hostname. To give an example, www.domain.com can be your 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 combined with an SSL certificate. You can change the IP which a website 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 a few of your sites to use the same dedicated IP provided that there is no SSL activated for it.
