Issuing Client certificate and sending it to them

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to create various client certificates by myself end
then transmitting them (via crypted zip file sent by e-mail) to the usersthat
need to access my website.

The thing is : I don't want to allow any non-certificate access to my
website, so I must create a user certificate on their behalf.

For now, I've been able to create certificate for myself but I worry that a
certificate issued to me won't work with another account.

Does anyone do that here ? How ? Is there any specific procedure ? Am I
matching security best practices with that process?

Thanks in advance,

Regards
