SSL - Setup your site
To setup SSL on a domain, a couple of steps are required.
- You send us information required to generate CSR (see list below).
- We setup your new IP address, generate your CSR and send it to you.
- You purchase a SSL Certificate from a cetificate provider such as (www.instantssl.com).
- We install the SSL Certificate to your domain.
- We set the files or folders to require SSL.
Before you can purchase an SSL certificate, you will need a CSR to send to the SSL certificate store. We will generate this for you. In order to generate the CSR, we need from you:
- Organization Name (ie: My Company). This must match the name of the owner of your domain as listed at your domain registrar.
- Organizational Unit - (ie: Sales, or NorthCarolina, or mydomain.com) - This is fairly flexible.
- Common Name - www.mydomain.com
- Province - (ie: North Carolina)
- City - (ie: Greensboro)
- Country - (ie: US)
Please forward this information to us and we will create your CSR and send it to you. You then use the CSR to purchase a SSL Certificate for your site.
Does it cost anything?
- Yes. There is a $25/setup fee, and $10/monthly fee from Aquest Hosting
- You also have to purchase your certificate from a SSL Certificate authority.
If you have any questions, please issue a Trouble Ticket and we'll be glad to answer.
