Every TetraHost plan includes a free SSL certificate, issued and renewed automatically. Premium OV and EV certificates are available when your business needs stronger validation.
Browsers demand it. Chrome and Safari mark any page without HTTPS as Not Secure. Visitors see that warning before they read your headline, and many leave.
Google rewards it. HTTPS is a confirmed ranking signal. A site without it is competing with one hand tied.
Your customers deserve it. Without encryption, anything typed into your site — a login, a phone number, a card detail — travels in the open across every network in between.
How it workscPanel AutoSSL requests a Let's Encrypt certificate the moment your domain points at our servers.
No expiry dates to diarise and no annual renewal invoice.
If a renewal ever fails, our monitoring catches it before your visitors do.
FAQYes. Every hosting plan includes a free SSL certificate for your domain and subdomains, issued and renewed automatically. There is nothing to install and nothing to renew manually.
A free certificate encrypts the connection and gives you the padlock — right for most websites and small stores. An OV certificate additionally verifies that your organization exists. An EV certificate is the highest validation level and is usually chosen by banks and large retailers.
Yes, in practice. HTTPS is a ranking signal, and browsers mark pages without it as Not Secure — which costs you visitors before they read a word.
No. On modern servers with LiteSpeed and HTTP/2, an encrypted connection is effectively as fast as an unencrypted one, and often faster because HTTP/2 requires HTTPS.
The free certificate covers your domain and subdomains created in cPanel. If you need a wildcard certificate for unlimited subdomains, we can supply one.
It will not — renewal is automatic. If anything ever fails, our monitoring catches it and we fix it before you notice.
Order any hosting plan and your certificate is issued automatically — nothing to buy, nothing to install.
