SSL, which is short for Secure Sockets Layer, is a security protocol that encodes the data that clients submit on a website. If they type in a username and a password on a login page or they acquire services and products online and they input their credit card information, the data shall be exchanged with the hosting server in an encrypted form, therefore an unauthorized third-party shall not able to see it. An SSL certificate will raise the protection of your website and will make it more inviting to consumers, but on top of the cost for the SSL, you must spend additional funds for a dedicated IP address, which is normally needed for the SSL installation. In case you have a small e-commerce portal and your budget is tight or you're a part of a non-profit organization and you can find far better use for the money, you can avoid the added expense by making use of our services since our cloud hosting platform supports SSL certificates not only on a dedicated IP address, but also on a shared one.

Shared SSL IP in Web Hosting

As we offer SSL certificates with our web hosting packages, you can quickly secure your site and use a shared IP address with just several clicks. The option will be available during the order procedure, thus if you have a dedicated IP address, you could use it, but if you don't have one and you do not want to pay for this sort of a service, you'll be able to use the shared IP, which has been set up particularly for SSLs. The certificate shall work in the exact same way as if it had a dedicated IP and the one difference will be that if someone tries to open the IP address as a URL, they will not see your website. As our system includes an auto-configuration option, the SSL will be set up automatically once it's issued, so you will not have to do anything on your end after you approve it. In this way, you can have a protected and reliable site without spending extra cash for that.

Shared SSL IP in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You'll be able to use a shared IP for an SSL bought through us or through any other supplier with any of our semi-dedicated services. The setup is extremely basic and if you acquire the certificate from our company, you can also take advantage of our SSL wizard where with simply a couple of mouse clicks you could select the SSL to be installed automatically for the particular domain or subdomain on the shared IP that is configured to be employed for this particular purpose. This option shall save you time and efforts given that you won't need to do anything after you approve the SSL via e-mail, not mentioning the cash you will save for the IP address on a monthly basis. Your Internet site will be secure and any customer will feel certain that their data shall be protected given that using a shared IP address doesn't influence the proper operation of the certificate and the only real difference from using a dedicated one is that the IP cannot be used as a URL to access your website.
