SSL, which is short for Secure Sockets Layer, is a security protocol which encrypts the data that customers submit on a website. If they enter a username and a password on a login page or they acquire goods and services online and they input their credit card details, the data shall be exchanged with the server in an encrypted form, so an unauthorized third-party will not be able to see it. An SSL certificate will increase the safety of your website and will make it more inviting to customers, but on top of the cost for the SSL, you have to spend more funds for a dedicated IP address, which is typically needed for the SSL installation. If you manage a modest e-commerce portal and your budget is tight or you are a part of a non-profit organization and you can find much better use for the capital, you'll be able to avoid the added expense by making use of our services as our cloud hosting platform supports SSL certificates not only on a dedicated IP address, but also on a shared one.

When you decide to work with an SSL from our company, everything will be arrange automatically and you'll not have to do anything after you order and approve the certificate. The SSL order wizard will permit you to choose a shared IP address to be used and the SSL to be installed by our system, so using this function requires only 2 additional clicks after you fill the needed data for the certificate. The proper operation of the SSL will not be influenced in any way and any data which site visitors submit on your website shall be encrypted and secured in the exact same way. The only big difference from working with a dedicated address is that http:// won't open your site, but it is unlikely that anyone will ever try to access it this way as opposed to inputting your domain name within the browser URL bar.
