What is an SSL certificate and why do I need it?

An SSL certificate encrypts data between your website and visitors, protecting passwords, payments, and personal information. It also shows the HTTPS padlock, builds trust, and improves your Google rankings.

What is the cheapest SSL certificate available?

The cheapest option is a Domain Validation (DV) SSL certificate, starting from €14.58/year. It's ideal for personal websites, blogs, and small projects.

Which SSL certificate is best for eCommerce websites?

For online stores, Organization Validation (OV) or Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificates are recommended. They display business identity verification and give customers greater confidence during transactions.

What is the difference between DV, OV, EV, and Wildcard SSL?

DV SSL – Fast & affordable, verifies domain only. OV SSL – Verifies domain + organization, adds business credibility. EV SSL – Shows green bar/company name, highest trust. Wildcard SSL – Secures a domain and unlimited subdomains.

Do I need SSL for platforms like Shopify, WordPress, or Webflow?

Yes. All modern platforms require SSL for secure logins, payments, and SEO ranking. Our SSL certificates work seamlessly with Shopify, WordPress, Webflow, and more.

How long does it take to install an SSL certificate?

Most DV SSL certificates are issued within minutes. OV and EV SSL certificates may take 1–5 business days due to validation checks.

Can I use one SSL certificate for multiple websites?

Yes. A Multi-Domain SSL certificate (SAN) allows you to secure up to 100 domains with a single certificate, making management simple.

Can I upgrade or switch my SSL validation level later?

Absolutely. You can upgrade from DV to OV or EV, or switch to a Wildcard/Multi-Domain SSL anytime without downtime.

Does an SSL certificate improve SEO rankings?

Yes. Google gives ranking preference to secure websites using HTTPS. Having an SSL certificate can improve both visibility and trust.

Do SSL certificates come with a warranty?

Yes. SSL certificates include warranties ranging from $10,000 to $500,000, depending on the plan, protecting you and your customers in case of encryption failure.

FAQ

SSL certificate questions

What does an SSL certificate do?

It lets your site load over HTTPS, so data between the visitor and your server is encrypted, and browsers show the padlock instead of a "Not secure" warning.

Is a free SSL certificate enough?

For most websites, yes. Our hosting plans use Let's Encrypt, which encrypts traffic just like a paid certificate. Paid certificates add a company check (OV or EV) or cover many subdomains.

Which plans include free SSL?

Every hosting plan: WordPress Hosting (from €1.23/month), Premium Shared Hosting, Turbo-Boosted Hosting and Reseller Hosting, with Let's Encrypt certificates. Managed WordPress includes free SSL too, and App Platform includes HTTPS on custom domains.
