Dedicated IP Address
Discover what a dedicated IP address really is and exactly why your web site will be needing one eventually.
All devices on the World Wide Web are recognized by a specific number called an IP address, for example 123.123.123.123. When you have a website, the domain name that you enter to be able to open it is to save you time, however the server where your site files are still has an IP address. As there're far more sites and devices than there are IPs, all of the shared web hosting servers have a number of websites under the very same IP, whereas using a dedicated server you will have a dedicated IP as well. Even in the first case though, you can acquire a dedicated IP for your websites and host them on a shared server. One benefit would be that you'll have better search engine positions as a dedicated IP usually means a faster loading website. What is more, you need such an IP if you want to buy an SSL certificate for your website and protect the info that your visitors submit on it.
