NOTE: if your hosting is with us, we can install your certificate for you for FREE. Just purchase the certificate from our web site and we'll do the rest.
- First you need to purchase an SSL certificate from us..
- Then it will ask you to configure your certificate. Before you do that, you need to obtain a Certificate Signing Request from your own web server. This is basically an encrypted text file that you need to store and upload it to our server.
- Once uploaded, you will get a confirmation email to the domain's whois contact requesting that you confirm the domain name. Just click the link in that email.
- Once confirmed, it takes about 10 minutes for a certificate to be generated. It will be emailed to you, and you can now apply it to your web server.
