A dedicated IP address ensures that you will have a distinctive 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 web hosting account. There are various uses for a dedicated IP - for instance, when an SSL certificate is required in case you have an online store and you want to accept online payments or when you have a login form and you want the data that users submit to be encrypted. A dedicated IP address may also be used for other apps, like a VoIP server, for example. In addition, it shall give more credibility and protection to your websites, as a network flood to a shared IP will not have any effect on your dedicated IP. In the event that you host your sites with our company and you have your own server, you'll be able to get one or numerous dedicated IP addresses with just a couple of mouse clicks and to use them just in case you cannot use the IP provided with the web server.
