OP, things are a little more complicated. If you are on shared hosting, most of the time your website will share the IP with others. in Apache for example this is done with "virtual hosts" - basically the HTML request determines the domain which answers, and not plain DNS resolution. You can use a service like to check for the IP neighbors of your website. Bad neighborhood can have consequences for SEO - Google can block your website if another one flagged for malware shares the address with you. Also various services can blacklist you as well if the address if used for phishing attacks, spam etc. An alternative to shared IP is the "dedicated" IP address - most webhosting companies have this as an option, but in general it will cost you more. VPS and dedicated servers have their own IP addresses as well. Certain specialized hosting companies are selling packages where you can choose on which IP your websites will be deployed, and have different class C addresses for different websites (to improve the quality of interlinking). As a general rule, you should be able to ask you hosting company to move your websites to another IP if you have reasons to believe the neighborhood is hurting your ranking. Also note that if you only change the IP address, the DNS propagation is very quick (the same DNS server answers all queries). If you change the DNS server (for example, you change the hosting company or your registrar), the DNS propagation will take longer (up to 24-48H). In such cases you want to put your website in read-only mode and serve the same content from both locations until the service stabilizes, to avoid any visitor disatisfaction. Good luck!
