A dedicated IP address suggests that you'll have a unique numeric identifier on the Internet and that it will not be shared with other's Internet sites or applications as it happens with a shared web hosting account. There are various uses for a dedicated IP - for instance, 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 which users submit to be encrypted. A dedicated IP address may also be used for other programs, such as a VoIP server, for example. In addition, it'll give more credibility and protection to your Internet sites, considering the fact that a network flood to a shared IP won't have any impact on your dedicated IP. If you host your Internet sites with us and you have your own web server, you'll be able to get one or several dedicated IP addresses with simply a couple of mouse clicks and to use them in the event that you cannot use the IP provided with the web server.

Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Servers

In case you obtain one of our dedicated server packages, you'll receive three IP addresses at no additional charge and you'll be able to use them for any purpose. If you need additional IPs, you'll be able to request them at any time from your billing area and we will assign them to the server a couple of minutes later. You can also get more IPs during the signup procedure and they shall be available on your machine as soon as it is all set and we hand it over to you. The IP upgrade is available in increments of 3 and you'll be able to choose how many addresses you will order and how long you will use them, as you will be able to choose the number of IPs that you will renew every month with your hosting server plan. Any IP address that is assigned to your dedicated server could be used not just for your personal content, but for any site or application your clients may have - if you have obtained the machine with the intent to resell the disk space to third parties.
