SSL, which stands short for Secure Sockets Layer, is a security protocol which enciphers the information which users submit on an Internet site. If they type in a username and a password on a login page or they purchase products and services online and they type in their credit card information, the data will be exchanged with the web server in an encrypted form, consequently an unauthorized third-party shall not able to see it. An SSL certificate will increase the protection of your site and shall make it more appealing to consumers, but on top of the cost for the SSL, you need to spend extra money for a dedicated IP address, that's typically needed for the SSL installation. If you manage a modest e-commerce portal and your budget is restricted or you are a part of a non-profit organization and you can find much better use for the money, you can avoid the extra expense by taking advantage of our services since our cloud website hosting platform supports SSL certificates not just on a dedicated IP address, but also on a shared one.

Shared SSL IP in Web Hosting

Considering that we offer SSL certificates with our web hosting solutions, you can effortlessly secure your Internet site and use a shared IP address with just a few mouse clicks. The option shall be available during the order process, thus if you have a dedicated IP, you could use it, but if you do not have one and you do not want to pay for this kind of a service, you can use the shared IP, which has been set up especially for SSLs. The certificate will work in the same exact way as if it had a dedicated IP and the sole difference will be that if somebody tries to open the IP address as a URL, they won't see your site. Since our system features an auto-configuration option, the SSL will be installed automatically as soon as it is issued, so you will not need to do anything on your end after you approve it. This way, you can have a secure and reliable website without having to spend more money for that.
