There are a couple of things you need to know about SSL on shared servers. If you want your site avaliable via https://www.yoursite.com you need two things. Your own IP address and a Signed certificate but we can't give avary one IP addresses and certificates cost money.

So in order for users on a shared server to use SSL we would need to setup a domain with SSL and every one uses that. So you end up having a link like this:
https://www.x10hosting.com/~yourusername/

If we get enough requests for SSL or if its really needed we will set it up.

is SSL the same as SSI?

 

[Richard]

No

SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer it helps keep infomation private (ie: Cedit Card numbers)

SSI stands for Server Side Includes it allows you to include one file into another. Its offen used for hit CGI counters and so on.
