With the advent of the Internet era, proxy IP has been integrated into every aspect of our lives. Many businesses cannot be carried out smoothly without proxy IP, such as online marketing, voting ranking, data collection, SEO optimization, forum posting, etc. Proxy IP can be divided into two types: exclusive IP and shared IP. Exclusive IP means that a single server has its own exclusive IP address, and shared IP means that multiple servers share a public IP address. The main differences between the two are as follows:
For virtual hosts
A shared IP address means that any user on the same host shares a certain IP address, and users on this host usually cannot use the IP address to access their own websites.
An exclusive IP address is relative to a shared IP address, that is, a website exclusively uses an IP address, and the website can be accessed directly through the IP address.
User volume and security
Shared IP, as the name suggests, means that many users share the proxy IP server together, so the shared IP needs to bind the domain name to the shared IP and access it through the domain name. If one of the users is demoted, hacked, or has his IP blocked, etc., the business of other users will also be affected. Therefore, shared proxy IP is not conducive to the development of large-scale business.
An exclusive IP refers to an IP that is used exclusively by one user. An exclusive IP can directly access the target site or conduct business through the IP without the risk of being "affected". It supports direct pan-resolution of domain names to this exclusive IP.
Price Difference
Better service naturally means more effort. Since the security and privacy of exclusive IP are higher than shared IP, the price of exclusive IP will be more expensive than shared IP.
Can I access it directly using IP?
Whether or not you can use the IP to access directly is also an important difference between dedicated IP and shared IP. Dedicated IP can be accessed directly while shared IP cannot be accessed directly. If you try to access it, you will receive an error message.
