With godaddy hosting, how can my domains come from diff c class ips?

    I just got off the phone with godaddy customer support. Unfortunately the lady i spoke with had no clue what c class ip's were...

    I have 1 deluxe hosting account with them that hosts my 15 domains, and would like some of those domains to come from a different c class IP.

    What should I do?
    Could I get a new hosting account from godaddy? how could i be sure the ip would be different? Is there a cheaper way of doing this? The lady mentioned their dedicated hosting, but at $70/month thats too expensive. What about setting up a basic (cheap) hosting account with another company like hostgator?

    Appreciate any help at all, since cust support let me down, you guys are all i've got left. :rolleyes:

    The only way to be sure would be to get another account with a different hosting company.

    If you go with HostGator you can join for one cent here or there's a WebHostingPad coupon which saves you $25.

    GoDaddy definitely packs a lot of customer sites onto a single machine. I've only worked with a single account with them before, so I'm probably not the best to comment on the IP issues.

    I recommend using another provider. Their service is marginal, but my biggest reason for not using them is I'm a minnow in a huge tank - there is little incentive to step to the plate with customer service issues.

    you may need to ask them this question directly to get a good response, getting different class c ips can be a pain sometimes and valid reasons are needed.

    i don't understand what's the purpose of having Class C IP address. so why are you looking for a class C ip? :D

    You can request from the hosting provider for different ips. The most they will give for a share hosting is 2 diff ips. You can try webhostingpad and currently I have a webhostingpad coupon that will give you $25 discount, 100% work.

    How about your requirements? The same with Godaddy offers, or going with other better quality, but lower space, bandwidth vendors?
