Dedicated IP Address
Find out what a dedicated IP address really is and exactly why your site will likely need one ultimately.
When you host a site on a server, it makes use of the server's shared IP address - an exclusive number that is used to identify every device connected to the Net. The website name that you use for the site is for quick access and convenience of the website visitors, but on a more basic level, their web browser connects to the IP address of the server. Due to the fact that there are far more websites than IP addresses, shared web hosting servers use a single IP for multiple sites even in case they are owned by different users. While this does not affect your site performance directly, having a dedicated IP can slightly increase the loading speed of a given site, granting it superior rankings in search engine results. Such an IP is required for the installation of an SSL certificate too, so if you plan to secure the payment or login info that your site visitors submit, you should have an IP alongside the SSL.
