An IP address is a unique number that distinguishes a site or a server on the world-wide web, so if you have a dedicated IP, it shall be used only by your websites and won't be shared with other individuals as it happens with shared Internet hosting accounts. In case you have your own hosting server, you'll have a dedicated IP, but you may require additional ones for a variety of purposes. If you have a web-based store, for example, you'll need an SSL certificate for it, so as to make certain that the payment info which your customers submit shall be encrypted and protected. The same is valid in the event that you have a login form of some type and you want the usernames and the passwords that visitors enter to be secured. The SSL certificate requires a dedicated IP address, which has to be different from the one that you already have on the machine. You could also need an individual IP for an app such as a VoIP server, or if you would like a slightly better efficiency for a certain website, which will influence its position in search engine results.

Extra Dedicated IPs in VPS

Each VPS package that we provide includes 1 dedicated IP address and if you add an Internet hosting Control Panel to it, we'll supply you with a second one at no additional cost, allowing you to use it as you see fit. If you need to use more IPs, you will be able to order them with just a couple of clicks at any time, since you'll find such an option both on our order page and inside your billing Control Panel. In the first case, the dedicated addresses shall be available as soon as the virtual server is set, while in the second - a few minutes after you purchase them. You could renew the IPs together with your VPS plan and use them for as long as you wish. They can be useful not only for your own Internet sites, but also for the websites of any clients which you could have if you are using the virtual server to run an Internet hosting reseller business. There's no restriction on how often you can order additional IPs or on the number of of them you can use with your hosting server at any time.

Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Hosting

All Linux dedicated servers hosting packages which we offer come with 3 IP addresses by default and you'll be able to use them in whatever way you see fit. In case you require more IPs for any reason, you could add them to your hosting server with just a few clicks without limitations as to their number or to the length of time for which you shall be able to employ them. This upgrade comes in increments of three and in the event that you require the IPs straight away, you'll be able to add them to the package deal during the signup procedure, while in case it turns out that you need more IPs at some point later on, you may order them just as effortlessly via your billing area and we'll assign them to your dedicated server several minutes later. The dedicated IPs may be renewed together with the web server plan on a monthly basis and you'll be able to determine if you shall renew all of them or just a few - if you no longer need that many. You'll be able to use the IPs both for your own websites and for customer hosting accounts - provided you are using the dedicated server as a hosting reseller platform.
