An SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate is a digital certificate that helps secure internet communication and protect sensitive information. It establishes a secure and encrypted connection between a web server and a web browser, ensuring that the data transmitted between them remains private and secure.
Using an SSL certificate is strongly advised, even though it's possible to run a website without one. It protects your website users by preventing man-in-the-middle attacks, which can compromise sensitive information. Moreover, some web browsers now warn users when they try to access websites without a trusted SSL certificate.
When a website has an SSL certificate, you'll see a padlock icon in the browser address bar, and the URL will begin with "https" instead of "http."
Yes, you can obtain a free SSL certificate for your website using Let's Encrypt, available on all our hosting plans.
DV (Domain Validated) SSL certificates only verify the domain ownership, which means they provide basic encryption and are suitable for most websites.
OV (Organization Validated) SSL certificates verify the organization's details and domain ownership, providing higher trust than DV certificates. They are ideal for businesses that must protect sensitive information and want to display their company name in the certificate.
EV (Extended Validation) involves an even more rigorous vetting process of both the organization and domain. In the past, these SSL certificates would turn the URL bar in the user's browser green, indicating they were accessing a verified and trustworthy website; this is no longer the case.
