SSL Certificates
Secure Your Website Today!
Security and trust is essential when you're operating an online business. Your visitors need to know they can trust you and that their data will be safe. By installing an SSL Certificate on your website you'll be proving your identity and encrypting anything sent to your server, such as personal or financial data. This means even if someone is listening, they'll not be able to read what's been sent.
We advise that SSL should be used to secure your web site transactions, logins, webmail and connections. Website's are constantly under attack from hackers around the world. They look to exploit known weaknesses on your website or web server. We offer you the highest levels of security, confidence and trust in your web site and online brand. As a RapidSSL and QuickSSL provider we take pride in our security and the security of our customers.

Note: You need a dedicated IP address BEFORE you order an SSL Certificate
Clients that have web hosting with Business Development Centre will need to purchase a static IP address that will need to be assigned to your account. If you have a dedicated server or VPS you can assign the SSL certificate to your server.
The reason for needing a separate IP address per domain you want to secure is that the SSL protocol is bound to static IP addresses, while a certificate is bound only to a domain name. Therefore, any certificate-enabled web site must have its own unique IP address. The IP can be real (routable) or internal (RFC 1918 non-routable address), but it must be unique on a server.
You must have a static IP assigned to your account. This can take up to 24 hours to become active. Please order this first.
IP addresses are available for $60 per year, this is only if you have services with us. If you want to purchase an SSL certificate for a site not hosted with us please contact us.
