An IP address is a unique number that identifies a site or a hosting server on the world-wide web, so if you have a dedicated IP, it will be used solely by your sites and will not be shared with others as it happens with shared website hosting accounts. If you have your own hosting server, you will have a dedicated IP, but you may need additional ones for different uses. Provided you have an electronic store, for example, you shall need an SSL certificate for it, so as to ensure that the payment information that your clients submit will be encrypted and safe. The same is valid if you have a login form of some kind and you wish the usernames and the passwords that visitors input to be protected. The SSL certificate requires a dedicated IP, which needs to be different from the one that you already have on the server. You might also need an individual IP for an app such as a VoIP server, or if you need a slightly better performance for a given website, which may affect its position in search engine results.

Extra Dedicated IPs in VPS Servers

If you choose one of the VPS servers packages we supply, you will get 1 dedicated IP address, and with any web server that's ordered with a Control Panel, we provide a second one at no extra cost. If you'd like to use additional IPs, you could add them to your plan with just a few mouse clicks at any time. 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 is set up. In the event that you need them later, you'll be able to add them via your billing CP and they'll be available within a few minutes. You could assign them to personal Internet sites with a couple of clicks or to any of your customers - if you are using the virtual server to start your own Internet hosting firm. You could take full advantage of this upgrade as often as you like and you'll be able to renew the additional IP addresses with your plan for so long as needed.

Extra Dedicated IPs in Dedicated Servers

All Linux dedicated web hosting plans that we offer feature three IP addresses by default and you'll be able to use them in any way you see fit. In case you require additional IPs for any reason, you could add them to your web server with several clicks without limitations as to their number or the period for which you shall be able to use them. This upgrade comes in increments of three and if you need the IPs right away, you can add them to the plan during the signup process, while in case it turns out that you require more IPs at some point afterwards, you'll be able to order them just as simply using your billing area and we will assign them to your dedicated server a few minutes later. The dedicated IPs may be renewed with the server plan on a monthly basis and you could choose if you will renew all of them or just a few - if you no longer require that many. You may use the IPs both for your own Internet sites and for customer hosting accounts - provided you are using the dedicated server as an Internet hosting reseller platform.
