An IP address is a unique number that distinguishes an Internet site or a hosting server on the world-wide web, so in the event that you have a dedicated IP, it will be employed solely by your Internet sites and won't be shared with other individuals as it happens with shared Internet hosting accounts. If you have your own hosting server, you will have a dedicated IP, but you may need extra ones for many different purposes. If you have a web-based store, for example, you'll need an SSL certificate for it, so as to make sure that the payment information that your customers submit shall be encrypted and secure. 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 secured. The SSL certificate requires a dedicated IP address, which has to be different from the one which you already have on the machine. You could also need a separate IP for an application such as a VoIP server, or if you need a slightly better overall performance for a certain Internet site, which may affect its position in search engine results.

Extra Dedicated IPs in VPS Servers

Our Linux VPS service provide one dedicated IP address by default. Another one is available too - when they are ordered with a hosting Control Panel. If you require more IPs, however, you will be able to add them easily, no matter the plan that you have chosen. You are able to do this during the signup process in the event that you need them from the start or using your billing account - in the event that you need them later. The dedicated IPs shall be assigned to your web server shortly after that and you could start using them. You may renew the IPs together with the plan for so long as you want 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 an Internet hosting reseller business, since you'll be able to offer a dedicated IP to every customer who would want to use one. There is no restriction on how many addresses you may order or on how often you'll be able to do that.

Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Servers

All dedicated service which we offer include three IP addresses by default and you'll be able to use them in any way you see fit. If you require additional IPs for any reason, you could add them to your web server with several clicks with no limits as to their number or the duration for which you will be able to employ them. This upgrade comes in increments of three and if you need the IPs right away, you could add them to the plan during the signup process, while in the event that it turns out that you need more IPs at some point later, you can order them just as effortlessly through your billing area and we will assign them to your dedicated server a few moments later. The dedicated IPs may be renewed together with the server plan on a monthly basis and you'll be able to choose if you will renew all of them or simply a few - in case you no longer require that many. You could use the IPs both for your own websites and for customer hosting accounts - provided you're using the dedicated server as a web hosting reseller platform.
