https://cheapsslsecurity.com/ is the only place to get SSL Certificate at cheapest price starting at only $4.99/year.

If your blog URL is as "www.yourdomain.com/blog" then you only need domain validated SSL, but if your blog is as "blog.yourdomain.com" then you need to get a wildcard SSL Certificate.

There is no difference between Cheap and Expensive SSL, both gives same security & encryption.

Price of SSL certificate vary based on its type and encryption feature. EV SSL costs high as its gives highest encryption & strong validation.

I don't think so. You can select any subdomain you want when you buy a certificate. Obviously if you get a cergificate for blog.yourdomain.com then it does not work on www.yourdomain.com.

If you only need these two subdomains, buying two separate certificates is cheaper than a wildcard one.

You can have SAN certificates, there's no need in that case for a wildcard one.
