A different website shows when I access the IP address in the browser?

Reseller accounts are setup to use one IP address which is shared between all hosted accounts. This usage is perfectly fine and there is no reason to host all websites on different IP addresses. This shared IP address is not intended to be used for IP access and the domain name should always be used instead.

The website shown when the IP is accessed directly is a default server holding page with no link back to us.
