It's funny, I was just asking myself the same question and was poking around various sites to see what types of SSL certificate products were on offer. I found this site:

Pretty much every large company uses VeriSign, which isn't cheap. Twitter, Apple and PayPal all use EV certificates (which make the url bar go green) from VeriSign which are between $1000 to $1500 each.
It kind of comes down to whether you want an EV cert or not. Certain sites are cheap for non-EV certs (Like Comodo), and others offer cheap EV certs (GeoTrust and DigiCert will sell you one for $300/year). The cheapest for everything seems to be GoDaddy, but, I guess caveat emptor.
