Wildcard SSL certificates work the same way as a regular SSL Certificate, allowing you to secure the connection between your website and your customer’s Internet browser – with one major advantage. A single Wildcard SSL Certificate covers any and all of the sub-domains of your main domain.

If you have multiple sub-domains to secure then a Wildcard SSL Certificate purchase can save you hundreds or thousands compared with the cost of buying individual SSL certificates. For example a single Wildcard SSL certificate for *.yourdomain.com can be used to secure:

• shop.yourdomain.com
• login.yourdomain.com
• mail.yourdomain.com
• download.yourdomain.com
• use-your-imagination.yourdomain.com
