Static IP Addresses

[Gineey]

Normally, with shared ips you cannot see Blacklist problem, because webhost already take care of it on priority basis.

True, But

while they give you a dedicated IP for your website that sometimes is not the case for mail as the default for cpanel lets say is the server IP for mail - so the persons with a dedicated IP might still be sending out mail from the shared IP< thus the potential of getting blacklisted is still there

Absolutely right. I know with HostGator, even if you have a dedicated IP on a shared account, email is sent from a shared IP.

Correct, if you are using a Shared IP address, it might be possible that the IP is Blacklisted due to someone who is using the same IP address. Hence, it is always better to consider a Dedicated IP address for your website. And yes, it is definitely very difficult to get an IP address out of the Blacklist.

yes, I second carlowen:agree: It's very difficult to run away from IP blacklisting, alternately very time consuming and irritating:devil:.

If you are going to have you own SSL certificate you must have a dedicated IP

 

[Hosting India]

I agree too, there is great risk while using the Shared IP, you will have to pay what you haven't done. Having Dedicated IP would be a better choice for the SSL

For me is the same If works with one dedicaded IP and one shared.

As many people have said static IP address are needed for the addition of SSL certs. If you are running a hosting company or other ecommerce company your going to need to have an SSL protecting your ordering systems, which is where getting a static IP comes in.
