SSL stands for Secure Socket Layer technology. It is the industry standard method for securing the transfer of sensitive data such as credit card information between a web browser and a server.
It is theoretically possible for data sent on a non-secure website to be intercepted by a hacker. Having an SSL certificate enables the data to be encrypted so that it can only be read by the authorized server even
if the encrypted data is intercepted it is unreadable.
Its visibility, in the form of a padlock on the site, provides customers with added confidence in your position as a legitimate company. A Dedicated SSL certificate protects both your information and your customers, providing a secure, encrypted link between a website and customers for all online transactions.

Maintain Your Own Website Address
This example website is using a Shared SSL Certificate - https://4tknox.au.com/ (available to all eCommerce Customers).
You can see in the address bar of this page that the url is:-
https://4tknox.au.com/premierweb.net.au/index.php
The page below has a dedicated QuickSSL certificate.
Both pages are secure, but the Dedicated SSL certificate allows the website to maintain it's own web address in the browser window, which is:-
https://premierweb.net.au/index.php
The Dedicated SSL Certificate offers further benefits such as offering your visitors the ability to see your company name and website address when viewing the SSL certificate details.
