Why would you want that? Dynamic IPs are for home users. Anyone running a webserver ought to have a fixed IP. (Curmudgeon speaking here.)

Maybe because the only option that is reasonably priced is for a dynamic IP? Like around here, for example?

RoadRunner offers fixed IPs only with their Business Class service, which *starts* at about $350/month. My residential service is $50/month.

Oh. I have a TW biz class line here, half dozen fixed IPs, $120/mo.

Course, here in Mil-wau-kee, we don't have flush toilets yet.....

Since I don't sell anything, but I *do* run a webserver (oh, and an email list or 10), why should I pay an extra $300/month?

Because it's good for society?

Seriously, why do you run a webserver if you don't sell anything? You can host it with someone for, oh, $10/mo, right?

One *could* argue that you're selling your experience as a consultant, blah blah blah.... just cuz it's not an e-commerce site doesn't mean you're not selling something...

(I'm running out the door so this sounds terse and argumentative, but it's not meant to be.)
