I don't know much about SSL certificates, but in general there are no pros and cons. You just get one - from a respected company of course - just to convience your users that they are on a secure environment Smiley

I believe you should go for a well known SSL certificate, not because it is better than others, but because clients are familiar to them and by seeing their certificates they tend to trust you more.

Such companies - in my opinion - are Verisign, comodo and thawte.

Have seen relatively cheap SSL certificate that ahosting.biz offers to their clients.
I think $29.99 per year isn't much. I just compare this price with the others and draw such a conclusion.

This company does not look like an SSL vendor. I think they are resellers or something.

I once bought a SSL from GoDaddy and DigiCert, but I GlobalTap is also a good company.
