Setting Up a Let’s Encrypt Certificate

Let’s Encrypt SSL certificates offer a good, free alternative to our paid SSL certificates from Sectigo.


Setting Up a Let’s Encrypt Certificate

In the Customer Center, navigate to the “Hosting Plans” menu item and select the hosting plan for which you want to set up a Let’s Encrypt certificate.



Then, under “Websites & Domains,” select the SSL/TLS Certificates button.


Here, select Install a Free Basic Certificate from Let’s Encrypt.

In addition to the primary domain, you can also secure the www. or webmail. subdomain using the Let’s Encrypt certificate.


If you select Issue an SSL/TLS Wildcard Certificate, you must also configure a DNS record via zone management.


If you select “Issue an SSL/TLS wildcard certificate,” the corresponding DNS record must be manually updated in the event of a renewal, as the DNS challenge changes upon renewal.


Then click the “Use for Free” button to request the certificate.

After successful verification, a message will appear stating that the certificate has been successfully installed, and you will be redirected to the certificate details.
