What does my SSL Status mean?
An SSL certificate authenticates the identity of your website to visiting browsers and encrypts their information, so you can build trust with your customers. Your SSL Status represents the status of any Standard Single Domain SSL certificate that you have purchased and is displayed in the Account Summary section of the Hosting Control Center. For assistance checking your SSL Status, see How do I check my SSL Status?
NOTE: Only Standard Single Domain SSL certificates are redeemable through the Hosting Control Center. For assistance redeeming other types of certificates, see:
