An IP address is a unique number that separates a site or a hosting server on the world-wide web, so in the event that you have a dedicated IP, it'll be employed solely by your Internet sites and won't be shared with others as it happens with shared website hosting accounts. If you have your own server, you will have a dedicated IP, but you may require extra ones for various uses. In case you have an electronic store, for instance, you will need an SSL certificate for it, in order to ensure that the payment information that your customers submit shall be encrypted and safe. The same is valid in case you have a login form of some kind and you would like the usernames and the passwords which visitors type in to be secured. The SSL certificate requires a dedicated IP, which ought to be different from the one which you already have on the web server. You could also need a separate IP for an application such as a VoIP server, or if you need a slightly better functionality for a certain Internet site, which will affect its position in search engine results.

Extra Dedicated IPs in VPS Web Hosting

Each and every VPS web hosting service we offer comes with one dedicated IP address and if you add a web hosting Control Panel to it, we will provide you with a second one at no additional cost, so that you can use it as you see fit. If you want to use more IPs, you will be able to order them with just 2 clicks at any time, since you'll locate this sort of an option both on our order page and within your billing CP. In the first case, the dedicated addresses will be available the instant the virtual server is set, while in the second - a few moments after you buy them. You could renew the IPs together with your VPS plan and use them for so long as you desire. They can prove useful not just for your own websites, but also for the sites of any customers which you could have if you're using the virtual server to run a web hosting reseller business. There isn't a limitation on how often you'll be able to order additional IPs or on the number of of them you could use with your web server at any moment.

Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Servers Hosting

If you obtain one of our dedicated server plans, you'll receive three IP addresses at no additional charge and you'll be able to use them for any purpose. If you need more IPs, you may request them anytime through your billing area and we'll assign them to the server a few moments later. You can even get more IPs during the signup procedure and they will be available on your web server 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 could select how many addresses you'll order and how long you'll use them, since you can select the number of IPs that you will renew on a monthly basis with your hosting server plan. Any IP address which is assigned to your dedicated server may be used not just for your personal content, but for any Internet site or application that your customers may have - if you have obtained the web server with the intent to resell the disk space to third parties.
