All devices on the World Wide Web are recognized by a unique number called an IP address, for example 123.123.123.123. When you have a website, the domain that you enter to be able to load it is to save you time, but the server where your site files are still has an IP. Due to the fact that there are many more websites and devices than there are IP addresses, all shared hosting servers have a number of websites under the very same IP, while when you use a dedicated server you'll have a dedicated IP as well. Even in the first case though, you're able to acquire a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. One benefit would be that you will get improved search engine positions as a dedicated IP usually means a faster loading site. Furthermore, you need such an IP if you would like to acquire an SSL certificate for your site and secure the data that your visitors submit on it.

In case you host your websites on our state-of-the-art cloud platform and you have a shared hosting plan, you're able to add a dedicated IP to your account at any time and assign it to any domain or subdomain with just a few clicks.

You can add or remove an IPas well as to keep track of the free and used ones at any moment. In case any of the IPs that you purchase will be used for an SSL certificate, you can enable the automatic configuration attribute in our SSL order wizard then our system will request & assign the IP before it installs your certificate automatically. Our versatile platform will allow you to use a dedicated IP address for various websites as well if it's not in use by an SSL.
