An SSL certificate is essential for any website: it enables HTTPS, protects user data and improves SEO ranking. Every domain and hosting plan includes a free DV certificate.
Modern browsers show a "Not secure" warning on sites without SSL. HTTPS is now an indispensable standard for any professional online presence.
Google favours sites with HTTPS in search results. An SSL certificate is a fundamental requirement to compete in organic ranking.
SSL encrypts traffic between browser and server, protecting users' passwords, contact details and payment information from interception.

The free certificate (DV via Let's Encrypt) offers identical encryption to commercial certificates and is perfect for most sites. Commercial Sectigo certificates add a financial warranty, security seal and greater compatibility with legacy software and systems.
Yes, commercial Sectigo certificates can be issued and installed on any server. We provide the certificate files and, on request, installation assistance on Apache, Nginx, IIS and other platforms.
