Why You Need an SSL Certificate

Keep every interaction secure. SSL encrypts all data exchanged on your site, preventing unauthorized access and ensuring customer information remains private.
Improve Search Rankings:
Search engines prioritize secure websites. An SSL certificate helps build user trust and can positively impact your search engine positioning
Meet Legal Requirements:
If your website handles user data, SSL is mandatory, not optional. It’s the fundamental security measure required by data protection laws to safeguard personal information.

What is a Certificate Signing Request (CSR)?
A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is an encoded file generated on your server when applying for an SSL certificate. It contains essential identification details required by the Certificate Authority.
A CSR typically includes:
- Your domain name
- Your organization name (for OV/EV SSLs)
- Your location details (city, country)
- A public key for encryption setup
The CSR is submitted to the Certificate Authority (CA), which uses it to produce your unique SSL certificate.
The CSR is a one-time requirement during the initial setup. If your site is hosted with Truehost, we can generate the CSR for you, completely hassle
How to Generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR)
You can create a CSR directly through your hosting control panel (such as cPanel or Plesk).
Follow these simple steps:
- Log into your hosting control panel
- Navigate to the SSL/TLS section
- Select “Generate CSR” or “Create SSL Certificate”
- Enter your domain and organization details
- Copy the generated CSR code and provide it during your SSL certificate order
We can also generate the CSR for you if you prefer a fully managed setup.
