Internet Business Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is an SSL Certificate?
  • An SSL Certificate is an electronic certificate that encrypts information that goes to and from a web server, so that the information sent is safe and secure from prying eyes. An SSL Certificate also gives authentication to your site. MonsterWeb offers SSL Certificate from the three most trusted SSL companies on the web; VeriSign, GeoTrust, and RapidSSL.
  • What is a Dedicated IP address?
  • A Dedicated IP address is simply your website's very own unique IP address. Multiple sites can be hosted on one IP address, but sites that are large or deal with sensitive information need their very own, and so there are Dedicated IP addresses. Only one site is hosted on each Dedicated IP address. MonsterWeb's Dedicated IP addresses come standard with all of our SSL Certificates in the E-Commerce Hosting package, you may also purchase them separately.
