🔒 What does the free SSL certificate include?
According to our official help docs, these are the most important features:
✅ 1. 100% free certificate
You don’t have to pay for it. It is included automatically with all hosting plans.
✅ 2. Automatic installation
The system detects your domain and generates the SSL certificate without you having to do anything. Just make sure your domain points correctly to your hosting!
✅ 3. Compatible with all your domains
If you have several domains hosted on your account, each one can have its own free SSL certificate.
✅ 4. Automatic renewal
You won’t have to worry about renewing the certificate periodically: it updates automatically every 90 days.
✅ 5. HTTPS and security padlock
Your site will display the padlock 🔒 in the browser’s address bar, and all connections will be encrypted.
