A dedicated IP address means that you'll have a distinctive numeric identifier on the Internet and that it won't be shared with other people's sites or applications as it happens with a shared Internet hosting account. There are many uses for a dedicated IP - including, when an SSL certificate is needed in case you have an Internet store and you need to accept online payments or in case 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 programs, such as a VoIP server, for instance. Furthermore, it'll give more credibility and protection to your websites, given that a network flood to a shared IP shall not have any impact on your dedicated IP. In case you host your websites with us and you have your own hosting server, you will be able to get one or a number of dedicated IP addresses with only a couple of mouse clicks and to use them in the event that you cannot use the IP provided with the server.
Extra Dedicated IPs in VPS Servers
If you choose one of the VPS servers solutions which we offer, you'll get 1 dedicated IP address, and with any web server which is ordered with a CP, we provide a second one at no extra cost. If you wish to use additional IPs, you'll be able to add them to your package with just a few clicks at any time. If you require them immediately, for example, you may add them to your order and they'll be assigned to your VPS the instant it's set up. If you need them later, you may add them via your billing CP and they'll be available within a couple of minutes. You can assign them to personal Internet sites with a couple of mouse clicks or to any of your customers - if you're using the virtual server to start your own Internet hosting business. You may take advantage of this upgrade as often as you wish and you may 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 could use them in whatever way you see fit. In the event that you require even more IPs for any reason, you may add them to your hosting server with several clicks without any restrictions as to their number or to the period for which you shall be able to use them. This upgrade comes in increments of three and in case you need the IPs right from the start, you can add them to the plan during the signup procedure, while in the event that it turns out that you require more IPs at some point later, you'll be able to order them just as simply using your billing area and we shall assign them to your dedicated server a few minutes later. The dedicated IPs can be renewed along with the hosting server plan on a monthly basis and you could decide if you will renew all of them or only a few - in the event that you no longer need that many. You can use the IPs both for your own Internet sites and for customer hosting accounts - provided you are using the dedicated server as a hosting reseller platform.
