A Dedicated IP address is assigned to one domain and is not shared by other domains. Normally, one IP address is shared among several hosting accounts on one server.
A Dedicated IP address allows you to:
Use SSL (secure sockets layer) protection on your website.
Have a fully functioning high-traffic web site.
Access your domain by using either your domain name or the numeric form of your IP address (Ex. 111.142.111.100.)
Reverse DNS lookup configuration.
Distribute application security.
Support clustering technologies.
