A dedicated IP address suggests that you shall have a unique numeric identifier on the Internet and that it will not be shared with other's websites or apps as it happens with a shared web hosting account. There are various uses for a dedicated IP - including, when an SSL certificate is needed in the event that you have an electronic store and you want to accept online payments or if you have a login form and you want the information which users submit to be encrypted. A dedicated IP address may also be used for other apps, like a VoIP server, for instance. Moreover, it shall provide more credibility and protection to your Internet sites, since a network flood to a shared IP will not have any impact on your dedicated IP. In case you host your websites with our company and you have your own server, you'll be able to get one or numerous dedicated IP addresses with just a couple of mouse clicks and to use them in the event that you cannot use the IP provided with the server.
