GoDaddy sells cheap SSL certificates that are accepted everywhere.

Have a look at www.comodo.com and sign up as a reseller to get good pricing.

Try looking at www.namecheap.com they sell PositiveSSL for $9.95 and RapidSSL for $14.88.

I prefer PositiveSSL they are more helpful and you can change your cert.

Godaddy is good. However the prices seem to keep going up.

GoDaddy aren't accepted everywhere last I heard. I've completely forgotten why though.

RapidSSL are a very good certificate to have, they are signed by Equiafax which is generally accepted with all browsers.

http://www.instantssl.com/ (Comodo) are pretty good. I've been using them for a few years now for myself and my clients, no problems.

I've heard from some people that namecheap provides some pretty good SSL certificates. I haven't been able to confirm this though, so maybe somebody could clarify it for me? :)

come to think of it, Enom is also offering SBS, RapidSSL, GeoTrust and Comodo certificates at a quite reasonable price. You might wanna check www.enom.com

If you are also considering offering domain registration, than a registrar's reseller account that also includes ssl certs can give you good prices. The Comodo and GeoTrust reseller accounts requires you to deposit alot of money to get anywhere near decent prices.

I agree! Enom offers reseller accounts. RapidSSL's for $10. Great company too!

namecheap has an API so start registering domains for your clients with every domain you get a free SSL from namecheap give it to the same client.
I can confirm that namecheap domains and SSL work perfectly.
Also note that you will need 1(at least) dedicated IP for each SSL.
There are another 2 places where you can get the SSLs for free but I will not be posting them here as I have not yet verified if they work (and to what extend, though they do state 99% browser recognition)
