Domain name registrar GoDaddy.com has created a new 6-in-1 certificate for assuring Web site security while saving online businesses time and money. The certificate offers Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Certificate with up to 256-bit encryption across as many as six Top Level Domains. It allows web site managers to reduce costs while providing a unified security experience for online customers.

GoDaddy.com is the first provider to develop a 6-in-1 SSL Certificate. With many businesses, purchasing all six variations of their domain name to protect their online identity, GoDaddy.com’s new 6-in-1 certificate provides a one-step, cost-saving solution. Customers can purchase one SSL Certificate to protect all six Top Level Domains (TLDs) including .com, .net, .biz, .info, .us and .org. Until now, separate certificates would have to be purchased to
protect each domain name.

Before this GoDaddy.com innovation, Web site managers would have to purchase either an SSL Certificate for a single TLD or buy as many as six – creating the potential for security warnings in customers’ Web browsers or high costs for multiple certificates. With this new 6-in-1 SSL Certificate, ebusinesses can save up to 54 percent over the cost of purchasing individual certificates.

“Go Daddy is dedicated to supporting our customers and responding to their needs,” said Bob Parsons, CEO and founder of The Go Daddy Group, Inc. “SSLs are important for gaining the confidence of online consumers. GoDaddy.com’s new certificate, backed by our 24/7 support, helps our customers save money and manage their businesses more effectively.”
