Nifty!
Thank you Forbairt.
answers my question perfectly.

I kinda knew that anyway, but I was just definitely making sure I wasn't buying a pig in the bag, as I have done before.
There's no doubt about, I'll be purchasing an SSl cert.

One question that did make me wonder though, should I go with windows or linux? Does it matter for a php app like magento really?
On shared hosting, I would be competent of using Apache on linux servers. Not my money I'm spending so I'm just making sure
