Extra Dedicated IPs
Find out more about the importance of dedicated IPs and the ways to receive Extra Dedicated IPs for your web server.
An IP address is a unique number that separates a website or a hosting server on the Internet, so in the event that you have a dedicated IP, it shall be used only by your websites and shall not be shared with other individuals as it happens with shared hosting accounts. Provided you have your own server, you will have a dedicated IP, but you may need additional ones for various uses. Provided you have a web-based store, for example, you'll need an SSL certificate for it, to make sure that the payment information your clients submit shall be encrypted and secure. The same is valid if you have a login form of some sort and you wish the usernames and the passwords which visitors enter to be secured. The SSL certificate requires a dedicated IP, which needs to be different from the one that you already have on the hosting server. You might also need an individual IP for an application such as a VoIP server, or if you desire a slightly better efficiency for a certain Internet site, which shall affect its position in search engine results.
Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Web Hosting
All dedicated web hosting which we offer include three IP addresses by default and you may use them in any way you see fit. In case you need more IPs for any reason, you may add them to your hosting server with a few mouse clicks without any limits as to their number or to the length of time for which you'll be able to use them. This upgrade comes in increments of three and in the event that you need the IPs right away, you'll be able to add them to the package deal during the signup process, while if it turns out that you need more IPs at some point later on, you can order them just as quickly through your billing area and we'll assign them to your dedicated server a few moments later. The dedicated IPs can be renewed with the server plan on a monthly basis and you could determine if you shall renew all of them or simply a few - in the event that you no longer require that many. You could use the IPs both for your own Internet sites and for client hosting accounts - provided you are using the dedicated server as a web hosting reseller platform.
