    I've had sites rank #1 for competitive keywords without being on a dedicated IP. I haven't seen any difference for my sites between shared hosting or a dedicated server with it's own IP. So in my opinion it isn't essential.

    I think that, dedicated IP cannot directly influence a site ranking. This however can affect the loading time for a site especially is the site has lot of traffic. If the load time is decreased via using a dedicated IP then this may have a very small impact on the ranking.

    Ok, if I host 4-5 sites on one dedicated IP, will it still help?
