I'd recommend that anyway as having "handpickedgifts.co.uk" at the start of every URI is ugly... with you using a shared SSL certificate you'd probably have to retain that at the start of every static URI, otherwise the certificate may not work correctly (I'm not sure if that's the case, but thought it worth mentioning).

All the best..

Hello Conor,

Thanks for the speedy reply! I've been thinking about this today and also coming to the conclusion the shared certificate is the most likely culprit.

I agree about the secure URIs being ugly but had been prepared to accept that for now, whilst we work on marketing the site. However, a quick check with my hosting company shows that a dedicated IP and certificate is much less than I had thought, so I think that will be the path of least aggravation.

I just need to present a convincing argument to the board (my wife! )

cheers
Dave
