A dedicated IP address is a unique numeric identifier on the net that's assigned to a device or a website. Shared website hosting servers usually have numerous websites under the same IP, while dedicated ones use their own IPs which aren't shared with anyone else. Even when you use a typical shared account, however, it is possible to acquire a dedicated IP address that will be in use only by your websites - one or a few. Since this can add up to the speed of awebsite, it's much more likely that the site will get improved search engine result rankings. Of course, this isn't the sole factor, but it is likely to help you find more visitors and prospective clients. The dedicated IP is also required when you would like to encrypt the info exchanged between the website and its visitors with an SSL certificate.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Hosting

Using a shared hosting account on our cloud platform, you are able to obtain a dedicated IP address and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a few clicks no matter where your account is - in the US, Great Britain or Australia. This can be done from the Hosted Domains part of the intuitive and user-friendly Hepsia Control Panel where you can also keep track of what IPs are available, what are in use and what websites they're assigned to. When you would like to use an SSL certificate in order to secure the info of your site visitors and you get it from us, our system will assign a dedicated IP and install the SSL for you, so you will not need to do anything manually on your end. In the meantime, you can still have a website in a subdomain as an addition to the main one under a shared IP address - a message board where users can share their opinion about your services, for instance.
