A dedicated IP address is a unique numeric identifier on the web which is given to a device or a site. Shared hosting servers usually have a lot of sites under the same IP, while dedicated ones feature their own IPs that aren't shared with anybody else. Even if you use a regular shared account, however, you're able to get a dedicated IP address that will be in use only by your sites - one or a few. Because this can contribute to the speed of thewebsite, it is more likely that the site will get improved search engine result rankings. Of course, that isn't the sole factor, but it can help you have more visitors and potential customers. The dedicated IP is also required when you want to encrypt the info exchanged between the site and its visitors with an SSL certificate.

Dedicated IP Address in Cloud Hosting

If you host your sites on our innovative cloud platform and you have a cloud hosting package, you're able to add a dedicated IP to your account at any time and assign it to any domain or subdomain with only a couple of clicks. The aforementioned option is available in all of the data centers where we supply services - Chicago (US), Coventry (UK) and Sydney (AU), so whatever your choice throughout the registration process, you're able to get a dedicated IP address for your websites. You will be able to add / remove an IPas well as to keep track of the free and used ones at any moment. If any of the IPs that you obtain will be used for an SSL certificate, you can activate the automatic configuration attribute in our SSL order wizard and our system will request & assign the IP before it installs the certificate automatically. Our versatile platform will allow you to use a dedicated IP for various websites as well if it is not in use by an SSL.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers

Due to the fact that you'll be able to run pretty much anything on a dedicated server, all of our plans feature 3 dedicated IP addresses included by default. In case you plan to launch some server software or to activate an SSL certificate for a website that you host on the machine, you will be able to use the IPs which we provide you with absolutely free. In addition, you can register child name servers with one or two of the IPs for any domain name that you have registered through our company or somewhere else then employ them to direct other domains to the dedicated server. If you have a web hosting company, for example, this option will contribute to your credibility as a standalone provider. In case you need more IP addresses than the three our packages provide you with, you are able to purchase extra ones in increments of three either throughout the signup process or through your billing Control Panel at any time.
