A dedicated IP address is an exclusive numeric identifier on the web that is allotted to a device or a website. Shared website hosting servers usually have a number of websites under the very same IP, while dedicated ones feature their own IPs which aren't shared with anyone else. Even if you use a regular shared account, however, you'll be able to purchase a dedicated IP address that will be used just by your websites - one or a few. As this can add up to the speed of awebsite, it is much more likely that the site will get better search engine result positions. Of course, this isn't the only factor, but it is likely to help you have more website visitors and potential customers. The dedicated IP is also necessary when you would like to encode the information exchanged between a website and its visitors with an SSL certificate.

Dedicated IP Address in Cloud Hosting

If you use some of our cloud hosting packages, you'll be able to add a dedicated IP address to your account in no time and assign it to a domain or subdomain with no more than a few clicks. This is valid whichever data center you've chosen for the account throughout the signup process, which means that it's possible to take advantage of this feature in our US, UK and AU facilities. In this way, you can have a dedicated IP for an electronic commerce website, for instance, whereas a forum attached to it can use the server's shared IP because you can modify each and every domain or subdomain independently from the Hosted Domains section of your Hepsia Control Panel. If you'd like a dedicated IP for an SSL certificate and you get the SSL through us, you are able to use our auto-configuration tool, that will assign an IP and set up the SSL automatically for the site where you wish to use them.
