Sorry for the noob question, but can someone clearly explain ssl to me?
Mainly I want to know what I need to get ssl? And how long it lasts?
Would ssl apply to any sub domains?
Would ssl apply to any other domains that are cname set to the ssl domain? Eg. Example2.com cname set to example.com, and example.com has a ssl.
Also what is the more common benefit of having ssl?
Thanks in advance.
