If you'd like to use an SSL Certificate on your website, to protect the payment and login information which users send, you will need a Certificate Signing Request, or CSR. The Request contains all the information for the entity which will use the SSL in an encrypted form, such as the exact web address for the website, the Business/Organization name, physical and email address. It needs to be sent to a vendor, or Certificate Authority, which reviews the posted data and depending on it, issues the SSL certificate. The actual SSL set up requires four bits of code - the certificate, the CSR, a specific private key that is generated alongside the CSR and the SSL vendor private key. A site which has an SSL installed can be loaded with https:// instead of the usual http:// and the information submitted for the CSR will be viewed in standard text format through a web browser.

SSL Certificate Generator in Shared Hosting

In case you host a website in a shared hosting account purchased from our company and its users upload private info, you will be able to acquire an SSL certificate for it directly from your hosting Control Panel and with just a few clicks. We have an easy-to-operate order wizard, so you only need to select the domain/subdomain and enter the needed data for your Certificate Signing Request. You will receive an email to approve the order and soon after the SSL is issued, it'll be set up automatically by our system, so you won't have to deal with any codes or settings. If you would like to use the services of some other Certificate Authority, you can only get a CSR from your Control Panel then copy the code that you are required to submit for the SSL. You shall find the private key generated along with the CSR in the very same section.
