Web Hosting Help - Web Hosting Security

If you intend to transmit confidential or personal information between your web site and your customer, such as, credit card details then a secured server certificate is highly recommended. A certificate, issued by a valid and appropriate organization, confirms that you are who you are in the virtual world and inspire trust in those who communicate with you via your web site.

Secure server certificates do incur a fee and you will need to provide information confirming the validity of your business and web site to the certificate issuer.
