I don't think there is such a thing as a cheap ssl certificate  
provider. I think being an SSL certificate provide is nice work if you  
can get it.

We're currently using Comodo:

http://www.enterprisessl.com/

It's about $230 per year, which seems at least $100 too high to me.  
But last time I checked it's still about 1/3rd less than Verisign. One  
good think I'll say about Comodo, they have good support, which I  
needed when changing servers a couple of years ago (the certificate  
they send you is specific to the server software you are using).

If you are signing up for the first time, you need to allow some time.  
It's not something that you can get turned on instantly. You have to  
fill out a bunch of forms about your company and then they run some  
sort of check that supposedly verifies that you are really you. It  
usually takes a couple of days.

Since you are not planning on running your own server, I think you  
might need to check with the host you are planning to use. They may  
have some particular requirements, or you may have to make  
arrangements thru them.
