How to Get a Free SSL Certificate

Published on August 1, 2019 Our entire shared hosting infrastructure is now reachable over HTTPS. Your sites can use a free SSL certificate compatible with most browsers. What is an SSL certificate? An SSL certificate secures the traffic between your visitors and your website. With SSL, communications are encrypted. Why does it matter? Securing traffic is a priority — especially for an online store. The certificate also helps with search engine ranking, on Google for instance:

Better visibility on Google
A trust signal for your visitors

How do I get it? You first need a shared hosting plan with ONETSOLUTIONS. After that, activation is automatic (within 24 hours of your hosting being activated) and requires no action on your part. The certificate covers your domain — both yourdomain.com and www.yourdomain.com. To check the certificate, you can use this site: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html If you have any questions, open a ticket from your ONETSOLUTIONS client area.
