ORLANDO, Fla., June 8, 2009 -- Surpass
Hosting, a leading provider of Shared, Reseller, Dedicated and Virtual Private
Server hosting solutions with over 30,000 customers, today launched this summer’s
SSL security promotion, offering 256-bit
SSL certificates for only $20 per year.
Designed for online merchants and websites handling potentially sensitive information,
the RapidSSL® certificates add a layer of security and trust to online transactions.
SSL certificates work by authenticating SSL-connections, proving that the website
is the legitimate recipient of sensitive data. 256-bit SSL certificates offer
the industry standard in security protection.
“The benefits of maintaining current and valid SSL certificates are far
reaching and integral to the security of online merchants and other sites handling
private data. By offering low-cost, installed SSL certificates, we are able
to encourage our customers to adopt this important layer of security without
the typical hassle and expense,” said Kayla Fleming, vice president of
sales, Surpass Hosting.
Surpass Hosting technicians will install and configure certificates at no additional
charge for existing hosting customers. For customers who do not use the company
for hosting services, technicians will provide guidance instruction on installation.
In order to utilize the certificates, Surpass Hosting customers are required
to have a dedicated IP address (to which the certificate is assigned). Dedicated
IP addresses are available for subscription separately.
“These certificates are for absolutely anyone who wants to work with
a great, reputable company willing to help them out. We’re leveraging
our impeccable customer service,” said Fleming.
Customers following Surpass Hosting on Twitter get an additional $5 off the
yearly fee. To receive the discount, customers simply enter their Twitter username
into the comments box during the order process. The discount will be multiplied
by the number of years for which the SSL certificate is purchased.
Surpass Hosting offers a wide variety of hosting options. Its most popular,
shared hosting, starts as low as $4 per month. All shared hosting plans are
powered by servers with Quad-Core technology and housed in the company’s
private Orlando, Fla. data center. The 12,000 square feet data facility offers
more than 32 gigabits of network backbone capacity and is constructed with concrete
masonry perimeter walls capable of resisting Category 5 storms.
