The benefits of using a dedicated IP address
A common issue when hosting a website on a shared server is: do you need to use a dedicated IP address? Why not just stick with the shared IP address? A dedicated one offers many advantages, but let’s look at the definitions first.
IP — Internet Protocol — is a unique address given to each computer connected to a network. It’s used to identify a location of a specific machine or a website. In our case, your website.
A shared IP address is a single address shared by multiple websites on a single web server. A dedicated IP address is used by just one website, which can then be accessed either by its domain name or directly by its IP address.
