Even if you get a dedicated IP, that could have previously been blacklisted, so it's not a cure. IMO I'd just assume getting a dedicated IP, they're so cheap through "a good host" that it doesn't hurt to have one.

You're right. Dedicated IPs can be blacklisted, but there are remedies to get unlisted. Is it time consuming and a real pain - yes.

Yes, it is definitely possible that your Dedicated IP's will get Blacklisted. However, IP's get Blacklisted if you use them for Illegal activities or some other activities which are not allowed. Hence, it is suggested that you should use the IP's for genuine reasons and make correct use of those IP's.

This doesn't mean you are the one who got them blacklisted in the first place. As Steve said, it's a real pain to get them unlisted. I don't even bother trying.. Next IP please!

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.

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

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

yes, I second carlowen

It's very difficult to run away from IP blacklisting, alternately very time consuming and irritating

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

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.
