An IP address is a unique number which separates a site or a web server on the Internet, so if you have a dedicated IP, it'll be used just by your Internet sites and shall not be shared with others as it happens with shared hosting accounts. Provided you have your own server, you'll have a dedicated IP, but you may need extra ones for a variety of purposes. Provided you have an Internet store, for example, you will need an SSL certificate for it, in order to ensure that the payment information which your customers submit will be encrypted and safe. The same is valid in case you have a login form of some kind and you want the usernames and the passwords that visitors enter to be secured. The SSL certificate requires a dedicated IP address, which should be different from the one that you already have on the web server. You might also need a separate IP for an application such as a VoIP server, or if you want a slightly better functionality for a particular site, which will affect its position in search engine results.
Extra Dedicated IPs in VPS Servers
If you order one of our VPS servers, we will supply you with one dedicated IP address by default and a second one absolutely free - if you add any one of the hosting Control Panels that we offer to your order. Additional IPs could be purchased with ease in the event that you require them. The option is offered on the order page, so if you need more IPs from the start, we'll able to assign them to your VPS whenever it's set up and you can use them the second you start using the server. If you require them for any reason afterwards, you can order them from the billing area and they shall be available in a matter of minutes. This way, you can assign dedicated IP addresses not only to your own Internet sites, but also to customers' websites provided you have started a reseller enterprise. You'll be able to order IPs as often as required and renew them together with your virtual web server plan. If, at some point, you need less IPs, you shall have the chance to renew only those that you need, while the extra ones will be taken off your hosting server.
Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Servers
We give three absolutely free dedicated IP addresses with each dedicated server we offer, but if you require more, you'll be able to order them effortlessly and they'll be assigned to your machine at once. The upgrade can be purchased both on our order page and within the billing CP, so you can get additional IPs whenever you require them - in the beginning or anytime later. You may order the upgrade in increments of three and include as many IP addresses as you require at any given time. You can renew just the IPs which you need together with the hosting plan, so if, at some point, you need less IPs, you may simply renew those which you need and the other ones will be removed from your hosting server. With our upgrade, you can use a dedicated address not just for your websites and applications, but also for your clients’ Internet sites and applications - in the event that you're using the server to run a hosting reseller business. Any IP on top of the default 3 IPs can be used for as long as you need it.
