Add an SSL Certificate

You can add an SSL certificate in your Website Builder site to provide visitors with a secure connection when they submit information, such as payment or contact details. After your SSL is issued, you can select which pages you want to secure.

You can also display a Site Seal on your website that lets your visitors know the information they send through your site is secure.

Note: Pages using the SSL certificate will use HTTPS instead of HTTP in your Web browser's address bar. HTTPS is the secured version of the HTTP protocol.
