SSL Certificate Management

SSL certificates secure your websites with HTTPS encryption. Manage them easily through your customer portal.

Viewing Your SSL Certificates

To view your SSL certificates:

  1. Click "SSL Certificates" in the navigation menu
  2. You'll see a list of all SSL certificates associated with your account
  3. Each certificate shows key information

SSL Certificate Information

For each certificate, you can see:

  • Domain: The domain the certificate is for
  • Type: Certificate type (Let's Encrypt, Wildcard, etc.)
  • Status: Active, Expired, Pending, etc.
  • Issued Date: When the certificate was issued
  • Expiry Date: When the certificate expires
  • Auto-Renewal: Whether the certificate auto-renews

Understanding SSL Statuses

Certificate statuses explained:

  • Active: Certificate is installed and working
  • Pending: Certificate is being issued
  • Expired: Certificate has expired and needs renewal
  • Revoked: Certificate has been revoked

Certificate Renewal

Most SSL certificates auto-renew, but you should:

  • Monitor expiry dates
  • Ensure auto-renewal is enabled
  • Contact support if a certificate is about to expire
  • Renew manually if auto-renewal fails

Installing SSL Certificates

If you need to install a new SSL certificate:

  1. Purchase or obtain an SSL certificate
  2. Contact support for installation assistance
  3. Provide the certificate files if required
  4. Wait for confirmation that installation is complete

Let's Encrypt Certificates

For Let's Encrypt certificates:

  • These are free SSL certificates
  • They auto-renew every 90 days
  • Perfect for most websites
  • Automatically installed with many hosting plans

Wildcard Certificates

Wildcard certificates:

  • Cover your main domain and all subdomains
  • Useful if you have multiple subdomains
  • More expensive than standard certificates
  • Require manual installation

Important Notes

  • SSL certificates are essential for website security
  • Expired certificates will show security warnings to visitors
  • Keep track of expiry dates
  • Contact support if you need help with SSL certificates
  • Most hosting plans include free SSL certificates
