SSL Certificates

Trust and safety come with a padlock.

An SSL certificate helps encrypt your site’s data whether it’s login information or credit card numbers. GoDaddy gives your website a Trust Seal that says your site data is protected, and a padlock next to your domain confirms it.

5 steps to manually install your SSL website certificate.

  1. Request the SSL: Specify your domain name and the type of web server that hosts your site.

  3. Download and install your SSL: Download your primary and intermediate certificates from the SSL dashboard.

  5. Check installation: Enter your URL into a browser and look for the padlock icon. If it’s there, installation is complete.

What’s an SSL certificate and how does it work?

  • Waterfall1

    It starts with data encryption.

    A SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate helps build trust. It authenticates your website’s identity and enables an encrypted connection regardless of the browser customers are using.

  • Waterfall2

    Your site data is now protected.

    With an SSL, all the data passing to and from your website is encrypted to help ensure privacy and prevent exposure to hackers and cyberattacks.

  • Waterfall3

    The padlock says it all.

    Once your SSL connection is complete, look for the padlock and HTTPS next to your domain. That padlock states that your site data is protected, which could help promote trust and help improve your search ranking.

  • Waterfall4

    Customers shop with confidence.

    The difference between a “secure” and a “not secure” website is about keeping site data protected which can help build customer trust.
