All devices on the Web are identified by a special number called an IP address, such as 123.123.123.123. When you have a website, the domain that you enter in order to access it is to save you time, however the server where your website files are still has an IP address. Since there are far more websites and devices than there are IP addresses, all the shared website hosting servers have a number of sites under the very same IP, whereas using a dedicated server you'll get a dedicated IP as well. Even in the first case though, you will be able to get a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. An advantage would be that you'll get better search engine positions as a dedicated IP usually means a quicker loading site. What is more, you need such an IP when you want to obtain an SSL certificate for your website and shield the info that your visitors submit on it.

Our Hepsia Control Panel is very easy and intuitive to use, so even when you have not had a hosting account before, you will not encounter any difficulties to obtain and assign a dedicated IP. Every domain or subdomain inside the account can use its own IP address in place of the server's shared one and you'll be able to make this change in the Hosted Domains section, where you will also see all IPs that your websites can use as well as if a dedicated IP is available or you're already using it. If you wish to have an IP for an SSL certificate, we have an SSL order instrument through which you're able to select everything to be set up automatically. Using this feature, our system will modify the IP of the desired domain/subdomain to a dedicated one and it'll install the certificate within a matter of minutes, so you will not have to do anything on your end except for authorizing the SSL order through e-mail.
