The marketing site is static-hosted on S3 and I think when I first set that up it was either too expensive for SSL or not possible. I'm not 100% sure, but I'll definitely look into it again. The wildcard SSL was a recent addition after coming out of beta, which didn't have the multiple subdomains.

Hot tip for when you get around to setting it up - SSL on S3 is far easier if you use CloudFront as the endpoint. At least it was 6 months ago when I was playing around.

It's possible, as long as you're ok with SNI (which is a pretty minor issue these days). You have to setup SSL on CloudFront to get it to work, check out: https://bryce.fisher-fleig.org/blog/setting-up-ssl-on-aws-cl...

I used that for my static S3 site, it's working fine.
