An IP address is a unique number which separates a website or a hosting server on the world-wide web, so if you have a dedicated IP, it'll be employed solely by your Internet sites and shall not be shared with other people as it happens with shared website hosting accounts. In case you have your own server, you will have a dedicated IP, but you may need additional ones for a variety of uses. If you have an Internet store, for example, you will need an SSL certificate for it, so as to make certain that the payment information that your customers submit will be encrypted and safe. The same is valid if you have a login form of some kind and you wish the usernames and the passwords which visitors type in to be protected. The SSL certificate requires a dedicated IP, which has to be different from the one that you already have on the web server. You may also need an independent IP for an app such as a VoIP server, or if you need a slightly better overall performance for a particular site, which may influence its position in search engine results.

Extra Dedicated IPs in VPS Servers

If you select one of the VPS servers plans we provide, you shall get 1 dedicated IP address, and with any hosting server that's ordered with a CP, we provide a second one totally free. If you want to use additional IPs, you may add them to your package deal with only a couple of clicks whenever you want. In case you need them immediately, for example, you can add them to your order and they shall be assigned to your VPS as soon as it's set up. If you need them later, you could add them via your billing Control Panel and they shall be available within a matter of minutes. You may assign them to personal sites with a few clicks or to any of your clients - if you're using the virtual server to launch your own Internet hosting firm. You could take full advantage of this upgrade as often as you want and you'll be able to renew the additional IP addresses with your plan for as long as needed.

Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Servers

When you obtain one of our dedicated server packages, you will get three IP addresses at no additional charge and you can use them for any purpose. If you need even more IPs, you could request them whenever you want from your billing area and we shall assign them to the server a few moments later. You can even get more IPs during the signup process and they shall be available on your hosting server the instant it's all set and we hand it over to you. The IP upgrade is available in increments of 3 and you may decide how many addresses you will order and how long you shall use them, as you will be able to pick the number of IPs that you'll renew each month with your hosting server plan. Any IP address that's assigned to your dedicated server can be used not just for your personal content, but also for any site or app which your clients may have - if you have bought the server with the goal to resell the disk space to third parties.
