An SSL certificate shows the padlock in the browser, protects your visitors' data and helps your Google ranking. Free SSL is included with every FariHost hosting plan.
Automatic SSL
Once your domain points to our nameservers, a free SSL certificate is normally issued automatically within a few hours.
Install it manually
Before you start: log in to your FariHost Client Area, go to Services → My Services, choose your hosting plan and click Login to Control Panel.
- Open the Security section and choose SSL/TLS.
- Select your domain (and the www version) and choose the Free SSL option.
- Save and wait a few minutes for the certificate to be issued.
Force HTTPS
In the same SSL/TLS area, switch on Force HTTPS so every visitor is sent to the secure version. For WordPress, also change both addresses under Settings → General to start with https://.
Still no padlock?
- Check your domain points to us. SSL can't be issued until it does.
- “Not fully secure” warnings usually mean an image or script still loads over http://. Update those links to https://.
