Dedicated IP's

[Marky]

Whats the benefit of a dedicated IP?

Does this allow the whois domain detail to just show the sites on the resellers plan or does it still show all websites on the entire server?

A dedicated IP allows you to:

1) Be continually accessed from the same IP without a domain
2) Generally means your getting hosting from a host with their own server
3) Distinguishes you from other servers

I can't really think of any more uses. Help me out here lads .

The real main reasons are

1: Balancing setups
2: SSL

Most people buy a dedi IP just because they require a SSL cert & you need a dedi IP for a SSL certificate.

oh ok about what whois domain details, will it show the servers ip or ur dedicated ip and will it show u what other sites are on the server or only sites that are under the resellers account?

It would list only the domains under the dedicated IP. For example if you have 5 under the dedicated IP it would show these 5 domains.
