Rekey my certificate

Note: Depending on the kind of SSL certificate you have, the steps for rekeying the certificate may be different. See below for more details.

For Deluxe Automated SSL (DASSL) certificates

You do not need to rekey DASSL certificates. To change the domain assigned to a DASSL subscription, first remove the domain from the subscription (which revokes any certificates associated to that domain), and then request a new certificate.

For Managed Hosting for WordPress SSL certificates

Managed Hosting for WordPress plans come with an integrated SSL certificate.

The integrated SSL certificate - This SSL is automatically installed when you attach your domain. No further action is needed on your part.
A standalone SSL certificate - An SSL purchased separately from your Managed Hosting for WordPress plan. Follow the directions in the Re-key my Managed Hosting for WordPress standalone SSL certificate article.

For all other SSL certificate types

Follow the steps as described below.

You should re-key your SSL certificate when:

You change the domain name (common name) of your SSL.
You want to change your SSL certificate's issuing organization. For more information, see Using the Right Issuing Organization for Your SSL.
Your server crashes.
You lose your private key.
You move your website to a new server.

Required:

Before you can re-key your SSL certificate, you must generate a new certificate signing request (CSR) from your Web server. For instructions, see Generate a CSR (certificate signing request).
Don't revoke unless you are certain you want to cancel the existing certificate. When you revoke, the SSL credit is canceled and you can't re-key the certificate.
You need to download and install your new certificate within 72 hours of re-keying your certificate to keep your server secure when the old certificate is terminated.

Go to your GoDaddy product page.
Select SSL Certificates and select Manage for the certificate you want to rekey.
Select Rekey your certificate.
In the Certificate Signing Request (CSR) field, paste your new CSR, including ----BEGIN NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST---- and ----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST----, and then select Add Change.
Select Submit All Changes.

Your newly re-keyed certificate will become available shortly after submitting the new CSR, and we'll email you when the certificate is available.

Next steps

After you receive the issuance email, you need to download your newly keyed certificate.
You must install the SSL certificate within 72 hours of issuance to keep your server secure.
