A dedicated IP address ensures that you'll have a unique numeric identifier on the Internet and that it will not be shared with other people's websites or apps as it happens with a shared web hosting account. There are various uses for a dedicated IP - for example, when an SSL certificate is required in case you have a web-based store and you need to accept online payments or in the event that you have a login form and you'd like the information that users submit to be encrypted. A dedicated IP address could also be used for other applications, such as a VoIP server, for example. In addition, it'll give more credibility and protection to your websites, since a network flood to a shared IP shall not have any impact on your dedicated IP. If you host your websites with us and you have your own web server, you will be able to get one or a number of dedicated IP addresses with just a couple of mouse clicks and to use them in the event that you cannot use the IP that comes with the web server.
Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Hosting
All Linux dedicated servers hosting packages we offer include 3 IP addresses by default and you can use them in whatever way you see fit. If you require even more IPs for any reason, you could add them to your server with just a few mouse clicks with no limitations as to their number or the duration for which you shall be able to use them. This upgrade comes in increments of three and in case you need the IPs right from the start, you may add them to the plan during the signup process, while in case it turns out that you need more IPs at some point later on, you'll be able to order them just as easily from your billing area and we will assign them to your dedicated server a couple of minutes later. The dedicated IPs can be renewed along with the hosting server plan on a monthly basis and you can decide if you'll renew all of them or only a few - in the event that you no longer need that many. You can use the IPs both for your own sites and for customer hosting accounts - provided you are using the dedicated server as a web hosting reseller platform.
