Dedicated IP Address
Discover why you will need a Dedicated IP Address for your website. Discover more about Dedicated IPs in general.
If you host a website on a server, it employs the server's shared IP address - an exclusive number that is used to identify a device connected to the Net. The website name that you use for the website is for easy access and convenience of the website visitors, but on a lower level, their browser connects to the IP of the server. Due to the fact that there are far more websites than IP addresses, shared hosting servers use the same IP for many different websites even in case they belong to different users. While this does not affect your site performance directly, using a dedicated IP can slightly improve 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 would like to secure the payment or login data that your website visitors submit, you will need an IP alongside the SSL.
