The Let’s Encrypt <https://letsencrypt.org/> site gives free certs. If your 
provider lets you bring your own cert, this is certainly less expensive.

Let’s Encrypt <https://letsencrypt.org/> is sponsored by a large number of 
well-known Internet powers, including Akamai, Cisco, Facebook, Google and 
Mozilla. They were established with a grant from the Ford Foundation. The goal 
is to make all Web traffic encrypted. They aren’t the only ones with this goal.
