SSL, which is short for Secure Sockets Layer, is a security protocol that encrypts the data that customers submit on a website. If they enter a username and a password on a login page or they buy services and goods online and they type in their credit card information, the data shall be exchanged with the web server in an encrypted form, hence an unauthorized third-party shall not able to see it. An SSL certificate will raise the safety of your website and shall make it more attractive to consumers, but on top of the cost for the SSL, you need to spend extra money for a dedicated IP address, that's usually required for the SSL installation. In case you have a modest e-commerce portal and your budget is limited or you are a part of a non-profit organization and you could find much better use for the money, you can avoid the additional expense by making use of our services since our cloud website hosting platform supports SSL certificates not just on a dedicated IP address, but also on a shared one.

Shared SSL IP in Cloud Web Hosting

Due to the fact that we offer SSL certificates with our cloud web hosting packages, you can effortlessly secure your Internet site and use a shared IP address with only several mouse clicks. The option shall be available during the order process, thus 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 sort of a service, you'll be able to use the shared IP, which has been configured particularly for SSLs. The certificate shall work in the very same way as if it had a dedicated IP address and the only difference will be that if anyone tries to open the IP address as a URL, they'll not see your site. Due to the fact that our system includes an auto-configuration option, the SSL shall be installed automatically as soon as it's issued, so you will not need to do anything on your end after you approve it. In this way, you could have a secure and trustworthy Internet site without having to spend extra money for that.

Shared SSL IP in Semi-dedicated Hosting

The shared IP option is available with all Linux semi-dedicated hosting packages and the setup takes only two clicks inside the hosting CP regardless if you get an SSL from our enterprise or through a third-party vendor. There shall not be any difference in terms of how the certificate functions or encrypts the data which your visitors submit, so your website shall be secure without having to spend any additional funds for a dedicated IP. The only thing that will be different is that https://the-shared-IP won't open your site, unlike https://the-dedicated-IP, but it's highly unlikely that anyone will ever try to access your internet site in this way instead of inputting your domain name. We also offer an auto-configuration option for the SSLs acquired via our company and if you select it and you decide to use a shared IP 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.
