	Maybe you're not using a cart, but just need to link to a secure form submission page. After setting up the Shared SSL, you would just set your link to link to the Shared SSL URL instead of the non secured URL. It's really a simple process.

-Notice the sites look and how the URL is still on the <b>main domain's</b> site. In their cart, they have indicated the shared SSL URL for the checkout process. They will the be directed to the Secure URL for the checkout process. However, as mentioned before, it is optimal to have the whole cart in a secure environment so the customer feels secure the whole time.

-Shared SSL (Secure Socket Layer) Certificates is a certificated that all of our customers can use. The Shared SSL certificated is intended for those who wish to have a secure connection, to say an admin area or a simple checkout process, but don't wish to purchase a Private SSL. Normally, a Shared SSL is not the best choice for an e-commerce site, this is because most customers expect to see the domain name of the company in the URL address bar. Shared SSL will use our domain name (usually ezhostingserver.com or hostek.com) in place of your domain name.
