An IP address is a unique number which identifies a site or a server on the world-wide web, so if you have a dedicated IP, it will be used only by your sites and will not be shared with others as it happens with shared Internet hosting accounts. In case you have your own server, you will have a dedicated IP, but you may require additional ones for different uses. Provided you have a web-based store, for instance, you will need an SSL certificate for it, to ensure that the payment info which your clients submit will be encrypted and secure. The same is valid in case you have a login form of some sort and you want the usernames and the passwords which visitors enter to be protected. The SSL certificate requires a dedicated IP, which ought to be different from the one that you already have on the server. You might also need an individual IP for an application such as a VoIP server, or if you need a slightly better performance for a particular Internet site, which may affect its position in search engine results.

Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Hosting

We provide three absolutely free dedicated IP addresses with each dedicated server which we offer, but in case you need more, you may order them with ease and they shall be assigned to your web server right away. The upgrade can be acquired both on our order page and in the billing Control Panel, so you could get additional IPs whenever you need them - in the very beginning or anytime later. You may order the upgrade in increments of three and include as many IP addresses as you want at any given time. You may renew only the IPs that you need together with the website hosting plan, so if, at one point, you need less IPs, you can simply renew those you need and the other ones will be removed from your web server. With our upgrade, you could use a dedicated address not only for your sites and applications, but also for your clients’ sites and apps - in case you are using the machine to run a web hosting reseller company. Any IP on top of the default 3 IPs could be used for as long as you need it.
