SSL, which is an acronym for Secure Sockets Layer, is a security protocol that encodes the info that clients submit on an Internet site. If they input a username and a password on a login page or they buy services and products online and they enter their credit card details, the data will be exchanged with the server in an encrypted form, consequently an unauthorized third-party won't be able to see it. An SSL certificate will heighten the safety of your site and shall make it more appealing to clients, but on top of the cost for the SSL, you must spend more money for a dedicated IP address, that is usually needed for the SSL installation. If you manage a small e-commerce portal and your budget is small or you're a part of a non-profit organization and you can find better use for the money, you could avoid the added expense by making use of our services as our cloud web hosting platform supports SSL certificates not only on a dedicated IP address, but also on a shared one.

Shared SSL IP in Hosting

Considering that we offer SSL certificates with our hosting plans, you can effortlessly secure your website and use a shared IP address with only a few clicks. The option shall be available during the order procedure, therefore if you have a dedicated IP address, you'll be able to use it, but if you don't have one and you do not want to pay for this kind of a service, you'll be able to use the shared IP, which has been set up especially for SSLs. The certificate will work in the very same way as if it had a dedicated IP address and the only difference will be that if somebody attempts to open the IP address as a URL, they won't see your Internet site. Due to the fact that our system features an auto-configuration option, the SSL shall be set up automatically the instant it's issued, so you'll not need to do anything on your end after you approve it. That way, you can have a risk-free and reliable Internet site without spending extra cash for that.

Shared SSL IP in Semi-dedicated Servers

The shared IP address option is available with all semi-dedicated hosting plans and the setup takes only 2 mouse clicks in the hosting Control Panel irrespective if you purchase an SSL from our enterprise or through a third-party supplier. There will not be any difference in the way the certificate works or encodes the info your website visitors submit, so your site shall be secure without spending any additional funds for a dedicated IP address. The sole thing which will be different is that https://the-shared-IP will not open your website, unlike https://the-dedicated-IP, but it is highly unlikely that anybody shall ever try to access your internet site in this way rather than inputting your domain name. Additionally we offer an auto-configuration option for the SSLs ordered through our company and if you select it and you decide to use a shared IP address instead of a dedicated one, our system will set everything up as soon as the SSL is approved and issued without the need for any action on your end.
