SSL Certificates

Which stands for Secure Socket Layer, is an industry-standard way of passing sensitive information between computers. SSL is often used to securely transfer credit card numbers and other information across the Internet. Developed by Netscape, SSL is also referred to as Netscape Encryption. SSL binds a person's or a computer's identity to a pair of electronic keys. These keys can be used to encrypt and digitally "sign" information to prove its authenticity. In order to complete an SSL connection a digital SSL Certificate is required. Hosting 4 Less offers two options for your SSL Certificate requirements.

Hosting 4 Less offers you two SSL Certificate options.

Hosting 4 Less Free Certificate
Shared SSL Certificates
Hosting 4 Less provides a shared SSL secure server so your customers can enter their credit card or other payment information online in confidence knowing that their information will be sent securely in an encrypted format, which prevents others from seeing their information.

This solution is available for all of our Ecommerce Hosting Plans. Using the Hosting 4 Less shared certificate will save you the cost of purchasing your own certificate - a savings of between $125 - $350! However, if you have already ordered your own Digital ID, you can use our shared certificate while you wait for yours to be processed. Use of Hosting 4 Less's SSL Certificate is included on all Ecommerce Plans for FREE!

GeoTrust SSL Certificates
Fully owned roots. GeoTrust owns all of its roots, and as a result, all of our certificates offer the highest level of stability. Unlike other companies which issue certificates off chained roots or license roots from third parties, GeoTrust is able to offer customers an assurance of root stability throughout the lifetime of every certificate.

99%+ browser ubiquity. QuickSSL Premium certificates are issued off of one of the world’s most trusted roots. They deliver ubiquitous recognition with leading servers and 99%+ web browser recognition.

Unlimited, free self-service reissues. GeoTrust provides a quick and easy way to reissue any lost certificate at no charge. Certificates may need to be reissued when upgrading or changing server software or operating platform; if migrating your site from one server to another, or if an existing private key has been lost, destroyed or otherwise inadvertently overwritten. After re-validating certificate information online, the new certificate is issued immediately and is valid from the date of reissue until the original expiration date.

Site seal. The QuickSSL Premium site seal allows your customers to identify and confirm that your web site is using a leading SSL Certificate. The seal resides on your web pages, identifying your site as genuine, authentic and validated by an independent third- party.

Competitive trade-in program. GeoTrust provides a simple way to upgrade from another vendor's certificate or transition multiple certificates from disparate certificate vendors. The competitive trade-in program allows you to retain the full value of existing certificate investments, by adding the remaining validity period of any active vendor certificates to your new GeoTrust certificates — up to 12 additional free months depending on when your current certificate expires.

Online Access to Your Business Profile. As part of the provisioning process with QuickSSL Premium, your business will be registered with ChoicePoint, the nation's leading provider of identification and credential verification services. With access to the corporate profile, customers can be confident conducting business online.

Multi-year certificates. QuickSSL Premium is available in multi-year validity periods at significant cost savings. Plus, you avoid the process of renewing certificates every year.

Automatic renewal reminders and early renewal options. With QuickSSL Premium, administrators are automatically notified when their certificates are close to expiration, so certificates are always valid. GeoTrust also allows administrators to renew certificates up to 90 days early and receive up to three months credit on new certificates.

Customer support options. QuickSSL Premium offers optional customer support services for those customers that need assistance installing and maintaining their certificates.
