If you host a site on a server, it makes use of the server's shared IP - an exclusive number which is used to detect every device connected to the Web. The website name that you use for the website is for easy accessibility and convenience of the visitors, but on a lower level, their web browser connects to the IP of the server. Since there are a lot more websites than IPs, shared hosting servers use a single IP for multiple websites even if they are owned by separate users. Even though this doesn't affect the site performance directly, using a dedicated IP may slightly increase the loading speed of a certain site, providing it higher rankings in search engine results. Such an IP is required for the setup of an SSL certificate as well, so when you want to protect the payment or login info that your website visitors submit, you should have an IP together with the SSL.
