This is true, and it makes hosting www.example.com and example.com on the same IP somewhat difficult. Certain newer browsers understand the Subject Alternative Name format. Here's a link about it: http://www.digicert.com/subject-alternative-name.htm http://www.digicert.com/subject-alternative-name.htm
I don't know anything about the linked site, so I'm not endorsing their products.
- metachor 18y agoDigicert is a legitimate provider of SSL certificates (my company uses them pretty much exclusively; I don't think they are any better or worse than other SSL providers that I've used professionally). One exceptional thing Digicert provides is good practical documentation for generating a certificate signing request and applying a purchased certificate to any web or application server. Makes it really easy for junior admins to get up to speed when they have to apply certs to everything from IIS to Apache, Tomcat JBoss, etc within the same environment.
- mishmash 18y agoActively considering using Digicert here so your info is appreciated. We can work around the primary domain not matching because our landing page has no real need for SSL, however, we do very much need iPhone support on the subdomains. Would you happen to know if Digicert Wildcard SSL certs work on the iPhone? Thanks
- brlewis 18y agoJust redirect. When people are typing in a URL manually and by habit add an unnecessary www., they're probably not typing https. I have www.ourdoings.com redirect to ourdoings.com for example.
