You need a separate certificate for each domain name.  You can also buy a
"Wild Card" certificate that will allow you unlimited 3rd level domains,
like:

www.yourcompany.com
ssl.yourcompany.com
secure.yourcompany.com

For more info, you might want to take a look at:

For the last several years I've used Equifax Secure - they are much less
expensive, see:

I hope this helps...
