SSL certificates: Secure your site and build trust with your customers

An SSL certificate isn’t just a technical detail; it’s a tool that grows your sales and protects your visitors’ data. When data is encrypted, customers trust your business and use your site in complete safety.

  • 20 certificates from 5 issuers
  • From $12 a year
  • Reissue throughout the validity period

Why SSL?

Why does your business need an SSL certificate?

Give your customers complete peace of mind: an SSL certificate opens a secure, encrypted connection between your site’s server and every visitor’s browser.

Complete confidentiality

Sensitive information, such as login details and card numbers, isn’t intercepted and never reaches anyone trying to steal it.

Authentication and reliability

The certificate proves the web server’s identity, so visitors know they’re talking to the real site, not a fraudulent copy.

Stronger digital trust

When the padlock and the https prefix appear in the address bar, visitors know at once that their data is in safe hands.

Selection guide

Three validation levels: choose the one that fits your project

The levels differ in how much the issuer verifies, and in what the certificate shows about your identity to anyone who opens its details.

Coverage

One domain, every subdomain, or several domains?

A certificate protects only the names written in it: one domain, a domain with all its subdomains, or several domains in one certificate.

Wildcard: the domain and all its subdomains

One certificate for a name that starts with an asterisk (*), protecting the main domain and all its subdomains at the same level, even ones you add later.

Tip: When ordering, enter the full domain name with www, such as www.dukkan-albalad.com, so the main domain is secured with it automatically and your visitors browse securely whether or not they type www.

Paid or free?

Why choose a paid certificate when free ones exist?

Free certificates like Let's Encrypt are a good start, but businesses that aim for professionalism choose certificates from trusted certificate authorities. Here’s why.

Root CA

Pre-installed in every browser and operating system.

Intermediate CA

  • Because it’s required to run HTTPS, and because visitors, browsers and search engines now judge your site by it.

    1. 01Secure data transfer: HTTPS encrypts everything your site exchanges with the visitor’s browser, so login details and card numbers can’t be intercepted or stolen.
    2. 02Visible trust: the padlock beside the URL is instant proof of security; clicking it shows the validated domain and the expiry date, and with OV and EV, the organization’s name and address.
    3. 03Approval from browsers and search engines: sites without SSL drop in search results, and their visitors see a “This site is not secure” message.
  • Although free certificates like Let's Encrypt are available, organizations that aim for professionalism prefer paid certificates from trusted certificate authorities, for these reasons:

    1. 01Longer stability, less effort: a paid certificate is issued for a full year, while a free one needs renewing every 3 months, and automatic renewal doesn’t always guarantee uninterrupted service.
    2. 02No sudden outages: any technical glitch on the server while a free certificate renews can make it lapse at once, so your search ranking drops and browser warnings drive your visitors away.
    3. 03Broad compatibility: a paid certificate works reliably on old and new browsers, while a free one often conflicts with older versions of browsers and operating systems.
    4. 04Organization identity validation: a free certificate is limited to domain validation (DV), while a paid one lets you include your organization’s official details.
    5. 05Insurance cover: if a security incident covered by the warranty occurs, the holder of a paid certificate can file a claim and receive insurance payouts.
    6. 06Flexible configuration: combine advanced options in one certificate, such as protecting an IP address together with Wildcard and SAN.
    7. 07Specialist support: priority technical support from the issuer for any question or technical issue.
    8. 08Global credibility: issued by internationally known authorities, it gives your site a seal of credibility that browsers recognize and professional users value.
  • SSL certificates were traditionally issued for a single domain name, so protecting several domains meant a separate certificate for each. With SAN, one certificate protects several domain names, cutting the cost and resources that managing multiple certificates takes.

  • A Wildcard certificate is issued for a domain name in which an asterisk (*) stands in for the subdomain name, so one certificate protects all your subdomains at the same level. It’s useful for sites with many subdomains, or that keep adding new subdomains at the same level.

  • It depends on the validation level you choose:

    1. 01DV certificates: issued within minutes, after domain ownership is proven by email or by confirming a specific file on the site.
    2. 02OV certificates: issued after the company’s identity is verified, meaning its legal documents and physical location.
    3. 03EV certificates: issued after rigorous vetting covering the legal entity, the organization’s physical location and the credentials of the person in charge.
  • Yes, reissue is available throughout the certificate’s validity, as with the most popular certificates: PositiveSSL, Instant SSL and EV SSL.
