HTTPS is simply a different protocol than HTTP (usually port 443 instead of port 80). All you need is a web server that supports HTTPS, apache has one, and a secure certificate, check out verisign. The secure certificate is $900.

You dont need the certificate from verisign, but it certainly makes your site look reputable.

And as I pointed out in a previous post ;-) There are much cheaper alternatives to Versign and the majority of your users won't knwo the difference :p
