If you access it by IP, yes, that's what it should serve. It's
name-based virtual hosting, as (virtually?) everything is these days,
so the default page is the hosting provider's site.

As another example, accessing
http://raptorize-rails-demo.herokuapp.com/ (a Heroku app of mine)
works fine, but navigating directly to the IP to which it resolves
(from here: http://23.21.169.234/ ) returns a "No such app" page.
