An IP address is a unique number which identifies a site or a server on the world-wide web, so in the event that you have a dedicated IP, it shall be employed exclusively by your websites and will not be shared with others as it happens with shared Internet hosting accounts. If you have your own hosting server, you shall have a dedicated IP, but you may require additional ones for a variety of purposes. Provided you have an electronic store, for instance, you shall need an SSL certificate for it, so as to make certain that the payment info that your clients submit shall be encrypted and protected. The same is valid in the event that you have a login form of some kind and you wish 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 which you already have on the server. You could also need an individual IP for an application such as a VoIP server, or if you desire a slightly better functionality for a given Internet site, which will influence its position in search engine results.

Extra Dedicated IPs in VPS Web Hosting

Our Linux VPS web hosting packages provide one dedicated IP address by default. Another one is available also - when they are ordered with a web hosting CP. In the event that you need more IPs, however, you shall be able to add them with ease, regardless of the package which you have picked. You can do this during the signup procedure if you need them from the start or via your billing account - in the event that you need them afterwards. The dedicated IPs will be assigned to your hosting server right after that and you may begin using them. You can renew the IPs together with the plan for as long as you intend to use them. This upgrade is quite useful not only for your personal content, but also in the event that you intend to use the virtual server to run a hosting reseller business, considering that you shall be able to provide a dedicated IP to any customer who would want to use one. There isn't any restriction on the amount of addresses you may order or on how many times you can do that.

Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Servers Hosting

Each dedicated server which we offer comes with three dedicated IP addresses supplied free of charge on top of the monthly fee for the package. We also supply you with the chance to add more IPs to your hosting server both when you sign up and at a later time via your billing CP, so you may order the IPs whenever you need them with no limit on the amount or on how frequently you get them. They may be purchased in groups of three and will be assigned to your server right away. You could renew them with the web hosting plan and you'll be able to decide if you'll renew all of them, or a smaller number - in the event that you no longer need the rest. Each dedicated IP address assigned to your hosting server could be used for any purpose: for a personal site, for a software hosting server, or for a hosting client - if you've decided to launch your own web hosting company and you're reselling accounts to other people.
