When you host a site on a server, it employs the server's shared IP address - an exclusive number that's used to distinguish a device connected to the Web. The domain name that you use for the site is for quick access and convenience of the visitors, but on a more basic level, their web browser connects to the IP of the server. Due to the fact that there are a lot more websites than IP addresses, shared web hosting servers use the same IP for many different websites even if they belong to separate users. While this doesn't affect your site performance directly, using a dedicated IP can slightly boost the loading speed of a given website, granting it higher positions in search engine results. Such an IP is essential for the installation of an SSL certificate as well, so when you wish to protect the payment or login information that your website visitors type in, you'll need an IP alongside the SSL.

Dedicated IP Address in Shared Web Hosting

We offer dedicated IPs with all our shared web hosting regardless of the data center location and you will be able to buy one or several IPs from your Hepsia Control Panel. A fresh section will show up as part of your account and you can request, delete or view your IPs with a couple of clicks. You will be able to decide how many domains or subdomains will use a particular IP since you can assign one with a couple of clicks to any hostname. For instance, www.domain.com can be the main website, which uses a server's shared IP, while shop.domain.com can be the subdomain where you offer goods or services on the web and it can have a dedicated IP address combined with an SSL certificate. You can change the IP which a site 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 one and the same dedicated IP as long as there's no SSL set up for it.
