If I'm reading this correctly this is a certificate for a single domain registered with EuroDNS and does not include a wildcard. Alternatively you could use CloudFlare's Universal SSL: https://blog.cloudflare.com/introducing-universal-ssl/

According to their site, http://blog.eurodns.com/eurodns-ssl-certificates/ , this is only for domains registered with them. So it's not really free. StartCom/StarSSL has provided fully free certificates for some time: http://www.startssl.com/?app=1 edit : Title is now clearer, I believe the "to customers" portion wasn't initially there. Or I just suck at reading.

That allows CloudFlare to MITM your SSL, so I'm torn on whether it's better than plaintext. Sure, it reduces the points where people can read your data down to one, but it also makes SSL go from "definitely secure to the server" to "probably secure".
