How to install SSL certificates?

You can one-click install SSL certificates for all your domains and subdomains. We offer SSL certificates for free for all your domains and subdomains. These are domain-validated certificates and are easy to install.

 

Note:

  • If you use Cloudflare or another Proxy/CDN, disable Proxy for your domain on Cloudflare/CDN before installing SSL.

    Please refer to the separate guide to install SSL without disabling Proxy:

  • SSL certificates are installed automatically once per day.

  • Your domain must resolve to your hosting IP or use our nameservers to install SSL.

  • SSL Certificates renew automatically as long as your domain resolves to your hosting IP.

 

Using AutoSSL


The AutoSSL tool installs the Let's Encrypt SSL certificate.

  • Go to cPanel > SSL/TLS Status.

  • Click on "Run AutoSSL"

  • Wait for the process to finish.

  • Done! SSL should now have been installed on your domains. No other steps are necessary.

  • Go to cPanel > SSL/TLS.

  • Go to CERTIFICATES (CRT) > Generate, view, upload, or delete SSL certificates.

    • Copy and paste the "Certificate: (CRT)" in the text field below "Upload a New Certificate".

    • Click "Save Certificate".

    Or,

    • Go to cPanel > SSL/TLS > Manage SSL sites.

    • Select your domain under "Domain".

    • Copy and paste the "Certificate: (CRT)" and "Private Key (KEY)".

  • Click "Install Certificate".
