Thanks all for the responses :) you took the words right out of my mouth! People want security to be a no-brainer, for you to eliminate any fear that something will go wrong when their visitors are hitting a secure site.
This translates into a few things, some will apply to your customers, some will not, but reasons I have heard over the years are: - no error on loading of a page - cert from a company they recognize and trust - easy renewal so that their site never goes unprotected - and from the reseller side, a central place to manage certs and renewals, and easy to install on their servers How and why you offer certain types of certificates is certainly a decision you each will make, and I appreciate the frank comments on the list, and I am keeping notes :) Kim Kim Phelan Senior Product Manager Tucows Inc.
