My main cash cow site used to be hosted with Hostgator / ThePlanet in the US and I've now moved it to my Linode server which is in the UK. To avoid a negative impact on SEO and traffic would it be recommended to purchase a separate US IP address for this site?

I'm not actually sure this is possible (at all, or with Linode). Assuming it is, should I?

All traffic is 100% organic, nothing from incoming links.
