I've been using http://www.rapidssl.com/ - although I'm sure there are cheaper places, so I'm interested in any replies you get as I'm due to renew soon.

these guys seem to get a good rating for there ssl cert - http://www.godaddy.com/ssl/ssl-certific ... px?ci=8979

not the cheapest, but i,m still looking !

I've read about some people having trouble using GoDaddy with software like OpenCart.

Some providers let you have a 30 day certificate for free to try out. I'd look for that before buying. Do GoDaddy offer that?

These guys seem quite cheap : https://www.sslgenie.com

I haven't used them myself.

One additional thought. The browser made by Comodo (based on Chrome) is set by default to throw up warnings if the SSL is one of the cheap "low assurance" types, re: http://www.comodo.com/resources/ecommer ... nation.php

It seems a little ridiculous because surely the point of an SSL is to encrypt data between the user and the website? If you're only using the SSL to encrypt customer data (names and addresses) and you take payment via a third party (PayPal), as we do, then one of the cheaper low-assurance certificates should surely be fine.

Yet, if you want to avoid the big warning in Comodo Dragon, you'd be better off not using an SSL at all and leave all the data unencrypted than use a low-assurance certificate. That's ridiculous. Given that Comodo sell their own SSL certificates, this "warning" seems to be a scam to get you to pay for their more expensive certificates using "security" to scare you into doing it.

I'm currently using http://www.alphassl.com/ and got mine for £49.99 for 12 months.

When we are planning to buy an ssl to secure our website, there are many question regarding certificate or price.

Here i want to try to solve your query

How many way you can buy ssl ?

- Buy directly from your hosting provider
- Buy from certificate authority like symantec, geotrust, globalsign, thawte etc. This way is recommended but costly
- Buy from authorized certificate reseller. This is recommended place to buy your ssl at best price.

I have best experience at here ClickSSL

I would be interested to know if these cheap around £10 a year certificates are any good. I need to again talk to Smitch about options.

Quite an old thread Derek but we appreciate your input, is this a link to your own company?
