How Do I Secure My Website With SSL in cPanel?

What is SSL?
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a security protocol that encrypts the communication between your website and your visitors’ browsers. This encryption helps ensure that any data exchanged—such as contact form submissions or payment information—remains confidential and protected from unauthorized access.

Websites secured with SSL display a padlock icon (🔒) in the browser’s address bar and use HTTPS instead of HTTP. This not only enhances user trust but also strengthens the credibility and professionalism of your website.

In the guide below, we’ll walk you through how to secure your website with SSL in cPanel:

Login into your cPanel using the username and password provided. You can retrieve your cPanel credentials from your registered email once you have subscribed to our plans.

Inside cPanel, scroll down to the Security section and click "SSL/STLS Status”.

Click the checkbox next to your domain name and click the "Run AutoSSL" button at the top.



Wait for the process to complete. Once successful, your domain will be secured with SSL.

Once the SSL certificate is successfully installed, your website will be secured with HTTPS, providing a safe and encrypted browsing experience for your visitors. This added layer of security helps protect sensitive information and gives your users greater confidence and peace of mind when interacting with your website.
