FROM CERTIFICATE TO CONNECTION
List the domain names and subdomains you need to secure before selecting a certificate.
Verify domain control and, for OV and EV certificates, provide the required organization information.
Install the certificate, configure HTTPS, and check your pages for connection or mixed-content issues.
An SSL certificate enables your website to use HTTPS with modern TLS encryption. It helps protect information in transit between a visitor’s browser and your website when properly configured.
Choose single-site for one website. Multi-site covers the specified names in the certificate, up to the plan’s limit. Wildcard covers eligible subdomains at a specified level under one domain; it does not cover every unrelated domain or every subdomain depth.
Domain Validation (DV) verifies control of your domain. Organization Validation (OV) also checks organization identity. Extended Validation (EV) requires more extensive organization checks. These levels differ in identity verification, not inherently in encryption strength.
With Basic, you handle installation, troubleshooting, and reinstallation when certificates expire. Deluxe Automated includes guided first-time installation, automated reinstallation, and certificate monitoring tools. Check compatibility with your hosting setup before purchase; automation is different from a fully managed service.

Basic requires you to install and maintain your certificate. Deluxe Automated offers guided setup and automation on supported configurations. Call support before purchase to confirm the right option for your hosting.
It may. Check your existing plan and the names it covers before buying another certificate. Included SSL may have different coverage or renewal terms.
Keep your payment and contact information current, follow validation and reissuance notices, and make sure replacement certificates are installed when required. Annual billing does not mean every issued certificate remains valid for a full year.
