As others mentioned, you can run multiple sites using SNI. You can also get a free cert from StartSSL. The barrier to entry is really low.

The only scenario where I wouldn't do it is a blog. There's probably no sensitive content there and without SSL you can use the free trier at CloudFlare to HN-proof it.

Unfortunately, SNI support is still slightly limited, though admittedly it's a fantastic solution for the majority of the usage cases. :)
