cheers!

Hi Plonking, basically you will need an ssl certificate and a dedicated IP Address. You can get free SSL certs which do the same job almost but they dont look proffessional, as you will get a pop up saying that its from an un-trusted source and stuff like that.... If you want us to quote for the entire web-hosting side of it (including your HTTPS fees etc )

This allows you to use secure pages without needing to spend out on buying a certificate yourself. |
This is very true, I-Web do the same, but for alot less than that per month
But the only let down of it is the URL.... Our share secure url is secure-vault.co.uk
So your shop would be
https://secure-vault.co.uk/yourusern...shop/index.php Which doesnt look too proffessional.
We can offer discounted SSL certs too (we dont advertise this yet) but if your interested contact
sales@i-websolutions.co.uk
