An SSL certificate on your site gives you the padlock icon in your browser, encrypting communications between visitors and the server. Warning sites without SSL certificates in the browser, so it is more important than ever to have an SSL certificate on your site.
HostNil’s budget cloud hosting package comes with a free wildcard SSL certificate. This certificate lets you use the more secure HTTPS protocol to keep your site users secure. To activate the SSL, you must ensure you’ve added the domain name to our nameservers. SSL Install is a very easy process for Budget Hosting. Follow the below steps-
Login to cpanel > Under Security and click the SSL/TLS icon.
You will then see your domain name and an option to Activate Free SSL next to it – select this, and the SSL will be applied to your domain.
If you’d like all your visitors to use SSL connections (i.e., for HTTPS always to be used), select the Enable option at the bottom of the page.
Once the SSL Certificate has been activated, securing your website will take up to 30 minutes. This is due to the changes that need to be made to our load balancers.
