SSL certificate

An SSL certificate is a digital certificate used to establish a secure connection between a website and a visitor's web browser. The SSL protocol stands for secure sockets layer. SSL certificates are often used on e-commerce websites and other websites where sensitive information is transmitted.

When a web browser connects to a website, the SSL certificate allows the browser to verify that it's connecting to the correct server and that the connection is SSL encrypted. This helps ensure that the information sent can't be intercepted and read by third parties. This is because an SSL certificate contains a public and a secret key. The public key (public key) is available to everyone and is used to encrypt data to be decrypted with the secret key (private key). The secret key is known only to the owner.

Once the secure certificate is installed on the website, visitors to the website will see a padlock on their web browser's address bar when they connect, indicating that the connection is secure. All of this means SSL certificates are crucial for protecting your website and keeping user data secure.

At Site.eu, we believe that SSL security should be a top priority for all website owners. That's why we include an SSL certificate with every domain name at no additional cost whenever you choose one of our optional packages. So, when you buy a domain name with us through an optional package, the price of an SSL certificate is zero, as it's included. Buying an additional SSL certificate will never be necessary for you again!

Whether you use our web hosting or website builder services, we make sure your website is always protected with an SSL certificate. And if you ever need to renew your https certificates, we'll take care of that too. This means you can rest easy knowing your website is always secure, without having to worry about installing or requesting an additional SSL certificate.

Buying an extra standalone SSL certificate isn't necessary with Site.eu! When you register a domain name with us, you also automatically get a single-domain SSL certificate included if you choose one of our optional packages, meaning you'll automatically have an https web address for your website. This is just one of the many benefits of registering your domain name with us.

In addition to your included SSL certificate, you also get web hosting, email and access to our website and online store builder when you choose one of our optional packages, so you don't have to worry about additional costs. With Site.eu, you can be sure that you're getting the best value for your money.

If you want to launch a serious website, then you definitely need an SSL certificate. Visitors to your website will trust your website more when you use an SSL certificate. An SSL certificate shows that you take data security seriously and that you're a professional organization. In addition, some web browsers warn visitors of your website if it's not secured with an SSL certificate.

Installing an SSL certificate may seem like a complicated task, but at Site.eu we make it easy. Our automatic process means you don't need any technical knowledge to set it up. In just a few clicks, you'll be ready to protect your website with SSL encryption.

An SSL certificate is always only valid for a limited period of time. So what if your SSL certificate expires? Our systems are designed to renew SSL certificates automatically, so you don't have to worry about it. The new certificate is installed automatically and you don't even notice the process, so you can be confident that your website is always protected.

At Site.eu, we understand the importance of security for both our clients and their website visitors. Therefore, we have decided to use only auto-issuing Let's Encrypt domain validation SSL certificates. Let's Encrypt is a certificate authority that issues industry-standard encryption for many websites. With this type of certificate, you can rest assured that your website is secure and that your visitors' information is protected.

In addition, using a domain validation SSL certificate helps improve your website's search engine ranking, making it easier for potential customers to find your website. If you need one for your subdomains, you can also get a wildcard SSL certificate from our web hosting services.

While Let's Encrypt doesn't offer the option to get an extended validation SSL certificate (also called an EV SSL certificate), most people don't need one.
