They say it's easy to add support on their site, and I would like to be able to use their free SSL.

No, they say "we do our best to make it easy", but they have no idea what the user count and server configuration look like on x10Hosting's Free Hosting servers. Let's just say that it's not your run-of-the-mill shared hosting environment, and that there'd be more to it than you think. (Even cPanel has been a problem on a couple of occasions.) (It's also probably worth pointing out that the first thing they did when they "went gold" a few months back was to have a major outage that took just about all of their users down. Just sayin'.)

The current setup of x10hosting's free-hosting servers will NOT work with SSL or TSL or SNI (regardless of IP shared or dedicated or what cPanel shows)

In the meantime, you can make use of CloudFlare to act as a proxy front-end to your site, and enable "Flexible" SSL through them - so your users would connect to the CloudFlare servers via SSL, and in the backend CloudFlare would pass on that request to x10hosting using normal HTTP with a encrypted & compressed connection

x10hosting's free-hosting users can use [ cPanel-x3 theme ] ( not x10hosting Basic) to setup CloudFlare for their account
