Is there a dummies guide to SSL? My new host doesn't have a shared, so I need to purchase one. It's better in the long run, isn't it? https://mydomain.com? Anyway, I have NO idea what I'm doing so any head starts would be appreciated.

You may want to take a look at the thread found HERE

The Knowledge Base is a wonderful thing.

Do you have a problem? Have you checked out Common Problems?

There are many very useful osC Contributions

Are you having trouble with a installed contribution? Have you checked out the support thread found Here

BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP!!! You did backup, right??

I did see that, but I guess I'm still getting confused by Certificates, C- signing requests, etc., cheap versus expensive (are the cheap bad?) and so forth.

 

And maybe an idea how much hassle they are to configure on something like cPanel after you buy the cert.

 

And also what to look for as in which types modify your URL and how much you have to pay for a cert that you can use your domain exclusively.

A lot of that info is in the thread I pointed you to.

 

Some of your questions about how to setup the cert on your domain are probably best answered by your hosting company as that varies quite a bit from company to company.

 

As far as the costs involved you can get a cert fairly cheaply (-$50) but you are also going to need a static ip address if you do not already have one and your hosting company will most likely charge you extra for that.
