An IP address is a unique number that separates a website or a hosting server on the world-wide web, so in the event that you have a dedicated IP, it shall be used only by your websites and will not be shared with other individuals as it happens with shared Internet hosting accounts. If you have your own server, you'll have a dedicated IP, but you may require extra ones for various uses. Provided you have an electronic store, for instance, you will need an SSL certificate for it, in order to make sure that the payment info that your customers submit will be encrypted and secure. The same is valid in case you have a login form of some type and you would like the usernames and the passwords that visitors input to be secured. The SSL certificate requires a dedicated IP, which needs to be different from the one which you already have on the hosting server. You might also need an individual IP for an app such as a VoIP server, or if you need a slightly better overall performance for a certain site, which shall affect its position in search engine results.

Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Servers

All dedicated servers that we offer come with 3 IP addresses by default and you'll be able to use them in whatever way you see fit. If you need additional IPs for any reason, you could add them to your web server with a few clicks with no restrictions as to their number or to the length of time for which you shall be able to use them. This upgrade comes in increments of three and in the event that you require the IPs right from the start, you can add them to the package during the signup procedure, while in case it turns out that you require more IPs at some point later, you'll be able to order them just as simply through your billing area and we will assign them to your dedicated server a couple of minutes later. The dedicated IPs can be renewed together with the web server plan on a monthly basis and you could decide if you'll renew all of them or just a few - in the event that you no longer need that many. You'll be able to use the IPs both for your own websites and for client hosting accounts - when you are using the dedicated server as a web hosting reseller platform.
