Dedicated IP Address
See why you may need a Dedicated IP Address for your site. Read more about Dedicated IPs as a whole.
When you host a site on a server, it employs the server's shared IP address - a unique number that's used to detect every device connected to the Net. The domain name which you use for the website is for easy accessibility and convenience of the website visitors, but on a more basic level, their browser connects to the IP address of the server. Since there're a lot more sites than IPs, shared hosting servers use the same IP for a number of sites even in case they belong to different users. Even though this doesn't affect the site performance directly, using a dedicated IP may slightly increase the loading speed of a certain website, providing it better rankings in search engine results. Such an IP is required for the installation of an SSL certificate as well, so if you want to protect the payment or login info that your site visitors type in, you'll need an IP alongside the SSL.

Dedicated IP Address in Dedicated Servers Hosting
Considering that you can run more or less anything on a
dedicated server, all of our packages come with 3 dedicated IP addresses included by default. If you need to launch some server software or to activate an SSL certificate for a website that you host on the machine, you will be able to use the IPs which we provide absolutely free. You can also register child name servers with one or two of the IP addresses for any domain name that you've registered with us or anywhere else then employ them to point other domains to the dedicated server. If you own a website hosting company, for example, the aforementioned option will contribute to your credibility as an independent service provider. When you need more IPs than the three the packages feature, you are able to get extra ones in increments of three either throughout the signup process or through your billing Control Panel at any time.
