    Hi markzero,

    Unless you pay godaddy $3/month for a dedicated IP, you won't be able to open your website using the current IP you have. The one you have is a shared IP, which is shared with multiple customers so it is not possible to call up your website using it :)

    on the web site of wordpress you will be able to find the list of suggested web hosts. That can be the company you are intersted in is listed there as well

    Generally shared hosting won't come with dedicated IP address. so that the issue. Didn't you brought Ip address separately from them
