Emmanuel Vivar, CEO of HostDime explained, ''HostDime has always taken the position that as a web hosting provider, it is our role to entice our clients to adopt and deploy industry standard security solutions. By providing SSL certificates as part of this promotion, we hope our customers will recognize that implementing this type of security can be affordable and painless. Many think SSL certificates are reserved solely for online stores, but SSL certificates are utilized far beyond the shopping cart - from personal browser security to secure email signatures, SSL offers vital protection.''SSL Certificates offer a variety of security benefits for websites handling potentially sensitive transactions and private data, such as credit card numbers or contact information. 256-bit encryption represents the industry standard of encryption for security certificates.

Twitter users who follow HostDime receive an additional $5 off the $20 price, by simply entering their Twitter username into the comments section of the order at checkout.
