    Hi there - just trying to find out if it is possible to access my website via an IP address instead of the domain name?

    He is obviously using a shared account on a server and not a VPS or dedicated. If it was dedicated or VPS then all he would have to do is to enter the IP of the server.

    I have fired an email off to my server admin, to find out if I can get a dedicated IP address for the site, will see what they say.

    Generally you need to provide a valid reason for dedicated ips, like for nameservers, ssl, or anonymous ftp. This is an ICANN requirement.

    They dont go through every application thoroughly.

    State that you need ssl certificate.
