I recommend Let's Encrypt[1] as a source for SSL Certs and the certbot 
tool [2] for installation and management. Of special interest is Let's 
Encrypt support of SAN certificates [3] enabling multiple hosts and 
domains to be very easily served from a single IPv4 address.  I 
currently have 18 hosts over nine domains on one IPv4.
