        Dedicated IP Addresses</h4>
    <h5>
        What are the advantages of a Dedicated IP?</h5>
    <p>
        Dedicated IP addresses are very exclusive and secure, while shared IP addresses 
        are not. Most domain names share their IP addresses with hundreds of domain 
        names. Therefore, if one domain name causes issues, all of the domain names can 
        be impacted.</p>
    <p>
        Some search engines or ISPs will penalize an IP address if one of its domain 
        names sends spam email. With a Dedicated IP, you can avoid the disadvantages 
        that come with sharing your IP address with other users.</p>
    <p>
        Online experts believe that a static IP or Dedicated IP address can boost search 
        engine ranking results. Search engines like unique addresses because your domain 
        name isn&#39;t associated with or connected to other domain names.</p>
    <h4>
        Why You need a Dedicated IP?</h4>
    <ul>
        <li>Direct Access – With a <strong>Unique IP</strong> address, you can view your 
            website using a <strong>hosting IP</strong> address, or you can have direct 
            access to your website&#39;s files using FTP or a Web browser.</li>
        <li>Updating DNS – When you update your domain name&#39;s DNS, your site becomes 
            inaccessible for 24-48 hours. This can cause major issues for you if you need to 
            FTP or preview any changes. With a <strong>unique address</strong> (Dedicated 
            IP), you can upload content and preview your website with no problems! All you 
            need to do is type your Dedicated IP address into your browser and your site 
            will come up.</li>
        <li>SSL Certificates – SSL certificates require a Dedicated IP address. A website 
            that requests personal or payment information should have SSL protection, but 
            SSLs require a static IP (Dedicated IP) to work. With a Dedicated IP, you are 
            able to set up an SSL that redirects your visitors through an encrypted hosting 
            connection. (Our SSL certificates include a Dedicated IP, so you do not need to 
            purchase a Dedicated IP credit separately if you are adding a certificate to 
            your site on your shared hosting account.)</li>
