SSL Certificates now only £49.99

Posted by Jonathan on 10/08/2010

We have just launched a brand new SSL security certificate for just £49.99 per year (that’s the same as only £4 per month). The new “Simple SSL” certificate is perfect for small businesses looking for a low cost solution for site security. Furthermore, we’ve also dropped the price of our ExtendedVerification SSL to just £249.99 per year (was £299.99). If you’ve been thinking about making your website more secure, now’s the time to do it cheaply and easily.

If you have an ecommerce website or other site requiring logins or requesting private details, then an SSL certificate will give your visitors peace of mind as they know it’s a website they can trust. You can also extend the types of payments you accept whilst keeping customer details protected. As the security padlock is visible in the visitor’s browser along with the secure ‘https://’, you can prove that you take security seriously.  ExtendedVerification SSL certificates also provide the eye-catching green security tab in the address bar:

A study by Forrester Research showed that up to 75% of potential customers abandon a retail website due to security concerns, so a recognised, industry-standard SSL certificate can help you increase your conversion rates and build up your reputation with customers.

If you’re a reseller, you can offer SSL certificates to your clients so they can benefit from secure websites as well. Our full range of SSL certificates is also available for those with dedicated servers.

Our SSL range now comprises:

Simple SSL – For the equivalent of just over £4 per month, this certificate offers a $10,000 warranty and is based on the RapidSSL product from GeoTrust.

Standard SSL – This certificate includes a Basic GeoTrust Site Seal and a $10,000 warranty for only £149.99 per year (the equivalent of £12.50 per month).

ExtendedVerification SSL – Offers a 40-bit to 256-bit SSL encryption and comes with a $150,000 warranty as well as the GeoTrust® True Site Seal with the person’s company name, date and time stamp. This is now available for just £249.99; the equivalent of just over £20 per month.
If you already have an ExtendedVerification SSL certificate, don’t worry – when you renew, you’ll pay the reduced price of £249.99 per year.

To order your SSL certificate, visit the Web Hosting Add-Ons page in your customer control panel, then scroll down to the ‘Personalised Secure Server (SSL certificate)’ heading and click ‘More’.

    What is the difference between this new £50 SSL and the previous £150 odd SSL – in simple comparison terms.
    Speed, encryption??? Or is the extra just for a little symbol?
    Can existing SSL’s be converted across?

    Hi Neil,

    Encryption is the same. There’s no site seal, but these are a good way to highlight security for customers. To change over you need to cancel the existing SSL and order a new one, which is a quick and simple process.

      Dedicated servers are included in our reseller package. They are priced as an additional extra, but all resellers get an exclusive monthly contract and billing option so there are no long term commitments.
