A dedicated IP address is a unique numeric identifier on the net which is allotted to a device or a website. Shared hosting servers usually have a multitude of sites under the same IP, while dedicated ones have their own IPs which are not shared with anybody else. Even when you use a regular shared account, however, you can acquire a dedicated IP address that will be in use only by your sites - one or a few. As this can contribute to the speed of asite, it is more likely that the website will get improved search engine result positions. Of course, this isn't the sole factor, but it is likely to help you find more website visitors and potential clients. The dedicated IP is also needed if you intend to secure the info exchanged between a website and its visitors by using an SSL certificate.
