: Do all websites in a shared hosting have the same IP address? If a shared webhost server like hostgator (for example) host 100 sites, will all the 100 sites have the same IP address?

Not necessarily, you can have multiple IP addresses on a server, and accounts can share IP addresses or be assigned dedicated IP addresses. If a domain uses an SSL certificate for example, that would require a dedicated IP address to be assigned.

The default setup for most servers is to share IP addresses however since they're limited, so more than likely shared hosting accounts on the same server will have the same IP address.
