Hostgator Dedicated IP

4 replies
I am fixing to get hosting at Hostgator. Is there any advantage in using a dedicated IP. For a little over 2 bucks extra per month for baby gator? I know that most hosting is shared IP but, would it be beneficial to have the dedicated IP and why?

Thanks in advance

    The way I see it... the only time it's beneficial to have dedicated IP's is if you have multiple sites in the same niche for SEO purposes.

      That's what I was thinking. But, no...it won't be one niche. I plan on multiple sites in many niches.

    Actually, if you get the Business package you get the IP and shared SSL for free, just contact the hostgator support team when you are all setup and they will hook you up.

    With the business package you get unlimited bandwidth,storage and domains which is very useful for such a cheap price.

      Hey Sean,

      I thought about that also. I'm just not ready to go that rout yet. If I need to upgrade at a later date, then I will.

      Thanks Sean
