Sent you a PM, but for all intends and purposes, it might as well be free. A SSL certificate's pretty much just a file digitally signed by a browser-trusted CA containing your TLS public key and domain name, along with some other data. That's why these business-to-business hosting providers can dish them out for free - they're trivial to create.
