A dedicated IP address suggests that you shall have a distinctive numeric identifier on the Internet and that it shall not be shared with other's sites or apps as it happens with a shared web hosting account. There are many uses for a dedicated IP - including, when an SSL certificate is required if you have an online store and you need to accept online payments or when you have a login form and you would like the information that users submit to be encrypted. A dedicated IP address may also be used for other apps, such as a VoIP server, for example. Moreover, it'll offer more credibility and security to your Internet sites, considering the fact that a network flood to a shared IP will not have any impact on your dedicated IP. In the event that you host your sites with us and you have your own web server, you'll be able to get one or several dedicated IP addresses with just a couple of clicks and to use them in the event that you cannot use the IP included with the server.
Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Servers
All dedicated web hosting plans we offer come with three IP addresses by default and you may use them in any way you see fit. In the event that you require additional IPs for any reason, you'll be able to add them to your server with just a few mouse clicks without any limitations as to their number or to the period for which you shall be able to use them. This upgrade comes in increments of three and in case you require the IPs right away, you may add them to the package during the signup process, while in the event that it turns out that you require more IPs at some point later on, you'll be able to order them just as easily through your billing area and we'll assign them to your dedicated server a couple of minutes later. The dedicated IPs could be renewed along with the web server plan on a monthly basis and you can determine if you shall renew all of them or simply a few - if you no longer require that many. You could use the IPs both for your own websites and for client hosting accounts - when you're using the dedicated server as a web hosting reseller platform.
