Hi all,

I am starting up a web hosting service and need to understand SSL and 
digital certificates. I have been reading up on it but there is lots of 
unknowns still.

I looked at Verisigin, Thawte, and Directnic and the prices range from $100 
to $900 seemingly for the same thing.

Can someone give me some hints on why this is so, what advantages one has 
over the other and also, do I need a certificate for each client or can I 
have one that all use.

Thanks

Nate
