A dedicated IP address is an exclusive numeric identifier on the world wide web that's assigned to a device or a website. Shared web hosting servers usually have a lot of websites under the same IP, while dedicated ones feature their own IPs that are not shared with anyone else. Even if you use a typical shared account, however, you will be able to get a dedicated IP address that will be used just by your websites - one or a few. Because this can contribute to the speed of thesite, it's much more likely that the website will get better search engine result rankings. Of course, this is not the sole factor, but it is likely to help you have more website visitors and prospective clients. The dedicated IP is also required if you wish to secure the information exchanged between a website and its visitors through an SSL certificate.
