Hi,<br /><br />Some sites have an IP address instead of a <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.____.com">www.____.com</a><!-- w --> address. Can anyone tell me how to do this?<br /><br />I called up fasthosts - i use them for hosting/domain - and asked them about this today. They said that my site has an IP but it is shared by several others so it's not possible to go to my site directly through it.<br /><br />Thanks for the help!<br /><br /><!--content-->
You'd have to find a host that offers unique IP to your hosting.<!--content-->
Do you know if it's possible just to get an IP domain that re-directs to my site?<!--content-->
