Hello, For quite a while, I've always been a seller that's primarily used PayPal only.. However, on my next online venture, we're stepping it up a grade and will be implementing a full CMS system, an e-commerce cart module (or platform in its entirety) and security through SSL certification. I've taken a look at the SSL certificates offered by eNom and was wondering what you all thought would be the cheapest certificate that is suitable and ready for e-commerce that will process credit cards, etc. Certainly the more expensive, I can assume is more feature and security laden, but just wanted to know what you all feel is a good balance of price, security and readiness for e-commerce. Cheers!

The SSL from eNom is under $50 dollars by secure business, it is perfect for PayPal, but I would not recommend it if your going to accept credit cards. I would also recommend if your a small store, all you would need is a regular quick SSL which would secure the need to transfer information to PayPal, as PayPal will handle the rest with their certificates. I actually got a SSL from Secure Business at eNom for 19.95 and it was really great. If you have a huge client database, and have a lot of orders, I would suggest step up to the verified business SSL, for security and also for your customers to know you are a verified business and you are entitled to guaranteed protection. -Andrew

I concur, your site is your store front. Customers need to know their safe to shop there. Especially if you are processing credit cards. Andrew is right on the money, also take a look at GeoTrust.
