If you want to protect the information which visitors submit on your Internet site, you'll need an SSL certificate. The abbreviation stands for Secure Sockets Layer and this is a protocol used to encode any data exchanged between a website and its users as to guarantee that even if an unauthorized person intercepts any information, they shall not be able to read or use it in any way. The current level of encryption makes it practically impossible to decrypt the authentic content, therefore if you have a login form of some kind or you offer services and goods online and clients submit credit card details, using an SSL certificate shall be an assurance that the information is secure. Usually a dedicated IP address is needed to install an SSL, which will increase the cost to maintain your site. The additional expense may matter when you run a small online store, a non-profit organization or any other entity which doesn't make a big profit, so to save you the cash, our cloud hosting platform supports installing an SSL certificate on a shared server IP address, not a dedicated one.

Shared SSL IP in Web Hosting

Since we offer SSL certificates with our web hosting solutions, you can easily secure your site and use a shared IP address with only several mouse clicks. The option will be available during the order process, so if you have a dedicated IP address, you'll be able to use it, but if you do not have one and you don't want to pay for this type of a service, you could use the shared IP, which has been configured especially for SSLs. The certificate will work in the same exact way as if it had a dedicated IP and the one difference will be that if anyone attempts to open the IP address as a URL, they will not see your website. Since our system includes an auto-configuration option, the SSL shall be installed automatically the instant it's issued, so you'll not need to do anything on your end after you approve it. In this way, you'll be able to have a protected and reliable Internet site without having to spend more money for that.

Shared SSL IP in Semi-dedicated Hosting

When you host a website within a semi-dedicated hosting account from our company and you would like to protect the data of your site visitors, you shall be able to use a shared IP address which has been configured for SSL certificates with just a couple of clicks. You can choose this option within the SSL order wizard which you will find inside the Hepsia hosting CP and you could even choose the certificate to be installed for the given domain or subdomain automatically by our system. This way everything can be set up for you on the shared IP the moment you approve the SSL. With this service we give you the chance to protect the data of your site users at no additional cost and without affecting the way the SSL shall encrypt the info in any way. The only main difference from using a dedicated address is that your site won't be accessible if you input the shared IP instead of the domain/subdomain within the browser address bar.
