      You can pickup a Comodo cert for $94/year. Looks like today's pricing has majorly changed since the last time I bought a cert, single site certs for $9. Let's Encrypt is having a real nice effect on the market!

      Where did you see $9?

      On Comodo the cheapest I see is $76.95.

      Or did you mean elsewhere?

        You have to look elsewhere. I forget where exactly I saw that price, but it wasn't direct.

              Thanks for this.

              My $70 a year GoDaddy cert was up. I bought the same type of cert from SSLS.COM for $15 for 3 years. TOTAL.

              That is exactly the kind of information I was looking for.

              More money saved on ML. AWESOME.

              And in the process learned a lot of certificates and domain validation.

                  I did come up with a question in all of this.

                  Not doing any real "business" online, I never really had a need for us to validate who we were.

                  But obviously, that is important to a company doing business online.

                  However, does anyone ever really check that stuff? I can say I don't think I've ever taken the time to validate a certificate was the physical address and stuff I thought it was supposed to be.

                    I do check them before I'll use a website for the first time. Outside of that, not much.

                      I was like, yeah that makes sense, yeah, of course. And then realized I had never done it.

                          Some of the SSL folks do verify information. We actually had our SSL Certificate denied once because our Address on file with the SSL site at the time still had an old street name on it... Of course, all it took was an edit to fix that, but still...

                                @BRRABill No Problem. I love saving money too! 🙂

                                My hope is that Let's Encrypt is going to force paid for SSL certs to be more reasonable.

                                  I think it will.... I'm already using it for some Personal stuff... I'd run it for a business site or a forum (cough, cough) any day.

                                    Maybe I'm lucky, but I'm not sure how much cheaper it can get that $5.

                                    I mean, a beer costs more than that, and I drink a lot of beer.

                                      Right, but I would love a $20 a year wildcard cert 🙂

                                        You mean like this one that is running on NodeBB?

                                          Other than loss of something there's no reason that wildcard certs need to cost any more than a single entry quote. The whole thing was just a way to make money!
