Por qué importa

Cifrado, confianza y el candado: resueltos

Un certificado SSL es mucho más que un trámite. Protege a tus visitantes y les indica que tu sitio es seguro.

Icono de candado que representa el cifrado del certificado SSL y la confianza en el sitio web

El candado en el que confían tus visitantes

Los navegadores muestran un candado en los sitios HTTPS. Sin un certificado válido, tus visitantes ven una advertencia de 'No es seguro'.

Cifrado en tránsito

Los inicios de sesión, los formularios y los pagos viajan cifrados entre el navegador y nuestros servidores, así que nadie puede leerlos por el camino.

Se renueva solo

Los certificados se reemiten automáticamente antes de caducar, así que nunca amaneces con el candado vencido ni con el proceso de pago caído.

Una señal discreta para el SEO

Los buscadores favorecen las páginas seguras, así que HTTPS le da a tu posicionamiento una pequeña ventaja frente a los rivales sin cifrar.

Identidad verificada

Un certificado EV demuestra que tu negocio es quien dice ser y coloca el nombre verificado de tu empresa dentro del certificado: una tranquilidad que cuenta cuando hay dinero de por medio.

Activo en minutos

Los certificados gratuitos se aprovisionan solos en cuanto tu dominio apunta hacia nosotros. No hay nada que comprar ni que instalar.

Preguntas frecuentes

Preguntas sobre certificados SSL

¿El SSL es realmente gratis en todos los planes?

Sí. Todos los planes de hosting incluyen un certificado SSL gratuito sin costo adicional, emitido y renovado automáticamente mientras tu sitio esté alojado con nosotros.

¿Cuál es la diferencia entre el SSL gratuito y un certificado de pago?

Los certificados gratuitos cifran el tráfico y muestran el candado. Los de pago añaden más: un wildcard asegura todos tus subdominios con un solo certificado, y un certificado EV suma una verificación de la identidad de tu empresa que los navegadores y los clientes reconocen como una señal de confianza más fuerte.

¿Mis visitantes verán el candado?

Una vez activo el SSL, los navegadores muestran el candado y cargan tu sitio por HTTPS. En cambio, los sitios sin un certificado válido ahora provocan una advertencia de 'No es seguro' en la barra de direcciones.

¿Tengo que renovar mi certificado a mano?

No. Los certificados gratuitos se renuevan solos antes de caducar. En los wildcard y EV de pago te avisamos con antelación de la ventana de validación para que nunca haya un hueco en la cobertura.

¿El SSL hace más lento mi sitio?

No hay un impacto perceptible. El TLS moderno está muy optimizado y HTTPS es obligatorio para HTTP/2 y HTTP/3, protocolos que en realidad aceleran la mayoría de los sitios.

¿Un solo certificado puede cubrir mis subdominios?

Sí. Nuestros certificados gratuitos cubren tu dominio principal y sus subdominios, y hay opciones wildcard disponibles si manejas una gran cantidad de subdominios.

Asegura la confianza de tus visitantes.

Todos los planes incluyen SSL gratuito con renovación automática, y certificados premium EV u OV en cuanto necesites demostrar quién eres.

The Full Picture

A green padlock is table stakes now — the harder questions are what happens to your certificate when you switch hosts, why a site can still flash 'Not secure' after SSL is installed, and which validation level actually matches the traffic you get. This page fills in that operational detail rather than repeating the basics.

Every plan we sell — web hosting from $2.42/mo, managed WordPress from $4.19/mo, VPS from $9.99/mo and dedicated servers from $149.99/mo — ships with free, auto-renewing SSL as standard, backed by 24/7 human support and a 30-day money-back guarantee if a premium certificate purchase turns out not to be the right fit.

Deep Dives

The details behind the promises

DV, OV and EV: what the validation levels actually check

A domain-validated (DV) certificate confirms one thing: that whoever requested it controls the domain. That's why free certificates issue in moments — there's no paperwork, just a DNS or file check. Organization-validated (OV) and Extended Validation (EV) certificates add a real verification step, where the certificate authority checks business registration records and confirms the company by phone before issuing anything.

That extra check is why EV certificates carry the deeper warranty — up to $1.5 million in our cover — and why they're worth the wait for stores, membership sites or anything handling sensitive customer data. DV is the right default for a blog or brochure site; OV and EV earn their keep once real transactions and real trust are on the line.

Keeping HTTPS unbroken when you migrate to us

Free managed migration doesn't stop at copying files and databases — it's timed so a fresh free SSL certificate is requested and issued the moment your domain resolves to our servers, closing the gap between the old host's certificate and ours before visitors ever notice a difference.

That matters most for stores and login-gated sites, where even a short HTTPS gap can trip browser warnings or break a checkout flow mid-migration. Coordinating the DNS cutover and the certificate issuance together is a standard part of the migration, not an extra step you have to request.

Diagnosing a stubborn 'Not secure' warning

SSL being active doesn't always mean the warning disappears. Mixed content — a page served over HTTPS that still loads an image, script or stylesheet over plain HTTP — is the usual culprit, and it often traces back to a theme, plugin or old database entry hardcoding an http:// link from before SSL was switched on.

24/7 human support can scan for those stray references and help configure a forced HTTPS redirect so every request, including old bookmarked links, is upgraded automatically rather than left to trigger the warning again on the next page load.

SSL, checkout pages and PCI-friendlier stores

Encrypting data in transit is one of the baseline requirements card processors expect under PCI DSS, and every plan's HTTPS covers that piece for checkout, login and account pages by default — no separate certificate purchase needed just to meet it.

SSL alone doesn't make a store fully PCI compliant; that also depends on how the payment processor and cart software handle card data. What our NVMe SSD and LiteSpeed stack does add is speed — checkout pages stay fast even with the extra handshake overhead HTTPS introduces, so encryption doesn't come at the cost of a slower cart.

Developer coding on a web hosting server

Installing wildcard and EV certificates without the guesswork

Ordering a premium certificate isn't a self-service form you're left to figure out. Our team generates the certificate signing request, submits it to the certificate authority, and — for EV — walks you through exactly which business documents the validation call will ask for.

Installation includes the full intermediate certificate chain, not just the leaf certificate — a detail that causes 'certificate not trusted' errors on some mobile browsers when it's missed. We confirm the chain validates cleanly across major browsers before marking the order complete.

  • Guidance on documents needed for EV verification
  • Full intermediate certificate chain installed
  • Cross-browser validation checked before sign-off

More Reasons

Built to help you grow

Migration-safe HTTPS

Free managed migration times certificate issuance to your DNS cutover so HTTPS doesn't lapse mid-move.

Mixed-content troubleshooting

24/7 support helps track down stray HTTP images or scripts still triggering a broken padlock.

Store-ready encryption

Checkout and login pages run over HTTPS by default, covering the encrypted-transit requirement stores need.

Reseller wildcard coverage

A wildcard certificate secures every subdomain of a domain, useful for staging, shop and portal areas under one account.

Modern protocol groundwork

HTTPS unlocks HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 on our LiteSpeed stack, so security and speed improve together.

Guarantee-backed upgrades

Premium wildcard and EV certificates are covered by the same 30-day money-back guarantee as hosting.

How to get going

1

Pick the validation level you need

More FAQ

More questions, answered

What happens to my SSL certificate when I migrate to Hosting Cheap?

Our free managed migration times a fresh certificate to issue the moment your domain resolves to our servers, so there's no gap between your old host's SSL and ours. Files, databases and DNS move alongside it, coordinated so HTTPS keeps working through the cutover.

Why does my site still show 'Not secure' after installing SSL?

This is almost always mixed content — a page served over HTTPS still pulling an image, script or stylesheet over plain HTTP, often from an old hardcoded link. Our 24/7 support team can help locate the offending references and set up a forced HTTPS redirect to prevent it recurring.

Can one wildcard certificate cover multiple client sites on a reseller account?

A wildcard certificate covers every subdomain of a single domain — for example shop.yoursite.com and staging.yoursite.com — but it doesn't extend across separate client domains. Each client domain on a reseller account still needs its own certificate, though free SSL issues automatically for all of them.

Does SSL make my store PCI compliant?

SSL covers the encrypted-transit requirement that PCI DSS expects, and every plan includes it on checkout and login pages by default. Full PCI compliance also depends on how your payment processor and cart software handle card data, so SSL is a necessary piece rather than the whole picture.

What's the real difference between DV, OV and EV certificates?

DV only confirms domain control, which is why free certificates issue instantly with no paperwork. OV and EV add an actual business verification step — the certificate authority checks registration records and confirms the company by phone — which is why EV carries a deeper warranty, up to $1.5 million in our cover.

Is there a guarantee if I buy a premium certificate and change my mind?

Yes. Premium DV, wildcard and EV certificate purchases are covered by the same 30-day money-back guarantee as our hosting plans, so there's no risk in stepping up from free SSL if it turns out you didn't need the upgrade.
