An IP address is a unique number that distinguishes a site or a web server on the world-wide web, so if you have a dedicated IP, it shall be used solely by your Internet sites and won't be shared with other people as it happens with shared Internet hosting accounts. Provided you have your own web server, you shall have a dedicated IP, but you may require additional ones for many different uses. In case you have an online store, for example, you'll need an SSL certificate for it, in order to ensure that the payment information which your customers submit shall be encrypted and protected. The same is valid in case you have a login form of some kind and you would like the usernames and the passwords that visitors type in to be secured. The SSL certificate requires a dedicated IP address, which has to be different from the one that you already have on the server. You may also need an independent IP for an app such as a VoIP server, or if you need a slightly better performance for a given site, which shall affect its position in search engine results.

Extra Dedicated IPs in VPS Hosting

If you choose to order one of our Linux VPS hosting services, we'll provide you with one dedicated IP address by default and a second one free of charge - in the event that you add any one of the hosting Control Panels that we offer to your order. More IPs could be purchased with ease in the event that you need them. The option is available on the order page, so if you need more IPs right away, we'll able to assign them to your VPS the moment it's put in place and you can use them the moment you start using the hosting server. If you need them for any reason later, you can order them through the billing area and they'll be available within a couple of minutes. In this way, you'll be able to assign dedicated IP addresses not only to your own sites, but also to clients' sites if you have started a reseller business. You can order IPs as often as needed and renew them along with your virtual web server plan. If, eventually, you require less IPs, you shall have the chance to renew just those which you need, while the extra ones shall be removed from your machine.

Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Web Hosting

Every single dedicated server which we offer comes with three dedicated IP addresses provided at no extra cost on top of the monthly fee for the package. We also offer the chance to add more IPs to your web server both when you sign up and at a later time through your billing Control Panel, so you'll be able to order the IPs whenever you need them without a limitation on the number or on how frequently you get them. They can be purchased in groups of 3 and shall be assigned to your server instantly. You could renew them with the hosting plan and you'll be able to decide if you'll renew all of them, or a smaller amount - in case you no longer require the rest. Each dedicated IP address assigned to your hosting server can be used for any purpose: for a personal website, for a software hosting server, or for a hosting client - in case you've decided to start off your own hosting firm and you are reselling accounts to other people.
