Free SSL Installation - How To Get Free SSL Certificate for Website (HTTPS) ?

Why should I apply for an SSL certificate?

1. Strengthen a customer’s trust on the website

2. Improve your website security

3. Improve your search engine ranking (SEO) ( Paid SSL>Free SSL>Non-SSL )


Yuan-Jhen provides two kinds of free SSL Certificate.

The only difference is the certificate authority of the certificate.

⑴. SSL/TLS Status

The certificate is provided by cPanel.

⑵. Let's Encrypt SSL

Let's Encrypt is a free certificate authority run by Internet Security Research Group (ISRG), with a mission to create more network communications security and reduce the promotion of financial, technology and education barriers in network communications security.

* The period of the above free SSL certification is 3 months, and the system will automatically renew one month before the free SSL certificate expires.

HTTP Validation (http-01) failure

1. A record of a domain you want to secure did not connect to virtualhost, resulting in failure to verify.

2. (.well-known/...) the contents of the folder cannot be accessed, resulting in failure to verify.


DNS Validation (dns-01) failure

1. A record of a domain you want to secure did not connect to virtualhost, resulting in failure to verify.

2. DNS is not used for this web hosting, causing authentication failure.

* Note that the usage frequency of a free SSL certificate has “ limit ”. Yuan-Jhen gently reminds everyone not try to re-apply it too frequently. If you encounter application problems, it is recommended to send a ticketor call to "Yuan-Jhen for assistance from an engineer". To prevent being locked to apply for the free SSL certificate, it will take longer to apply for a free SSL certificate again.
