A dedicated IP address means that you'll have a unique numeric identifier on the Internet and that it shall not be shared with other's Internet sites or applications as it happens with a shared Internet hosting account. There are various uses for a dedicated IP - including, when an SSL certificate is required if you have an electronic store and you would like to accept online payments or if you have a login form and you'd like the info that users submit to be encrypted. A dedicated IP address can also be used for other applications, like a VoIP server, for example. In addition, it shall give more credibility and protection to your Internet sites, as a network flood to a shared IP shall not have any impact on your dedicated IP. If you host your websites with us and you have your own web server, you will be able to get one or a number of dedicated IP addresses with only a couple of clicks and to use them in case you cannot use the IP provided with the hosting server.
Extra Dedicated IPs in VPS
If you select one of the virtual private servers solutions that we provide, you will get one dedicated IP address, and with every server that's ordered with a CP, we provide a second one free of charge. If you'd like to use additional IPs, you are able to add them to your package with only several mouse clicks anytime. In the event that you need them at once, for instance, you could add them to your order and they shall be assigned to your VPS the instant it's set up. In case you need them later, you could add them using your billing Control Panel and they shall be available within a few minutes. You can assign them to personal Internet sites with a couple of clicks or to any of your customers - if you're using the virtual server to start out your own web hosting company. You can take full advantage of this upgrade as often as you like and you could renew the additional IP addresses with your plan for as long as desired.
Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Hosting
If you obtain one of our dedicated server packages, you'll get three IP addresses at no additional charge and you may use them for any purpose. If you require more IPs, you may request them anytime from your billing area and we will assign them to the hosting server a couple of minutes later. You can also get more IPs during the signup procedure and they will be available on your 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 could choose how many addresses you'll order and how long you will use them, as you can pick the number of IPs that you'll renew on a monthly basis with your server plan. Any IP address that's assigned to your dedicated server could be used not just for your personal content, but for any site or app your clients may have - if you have bought the web server with the intention to resell the disk space to third parties.
