There were a couple hiccups getting my website online, and the support team was ALL OVER IT!! They immediately fixed the issue, and my website was up and running just FINE! BRAVO to the technical support team!
Straight forward, honest.
Although FAQ and AI are useful in solving problems, sometimes you just need a person so I appreciate having that included with Bluehost.
CR resolved my issue with one request. East peasy!
From the moment I started the interaction to the very end, it was 100% courteous and helpful. Did not try to push me into anything and was very understanding of my situation and I am very grateful and appreciated them very much.

An SSL certificate, also called a digital certificate, uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols to create an encrypted connection. It protects sensitive data, like passwords and credit card numbers, during online transactions.
You can easily activate your Free SSL in just a few steps:
When a browser connects, the server sends a digital certificate. During the SSL handshake, your browser and the website securely share keys. This process creates an encrypted connection that keeps sensitive information safe. This TLS connection ensures data like login credentials and credit card numbers stay secure and unreadable.
Certificate authorities issue Domain Validated (DV), Organization Validated (OV) and Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificates. In addition, Wildcard and multi-domain certificates secure multiple websites or subdomains. Extended Validation certificates display a padlock in the address bar, verifying digital identity and building customer trust.
Free SSL certificates use Let’s Encrypt for basic protection. Premium SSL, verified by a trusted third-party certificate authority, includes stronger encryption, extended validation options and warranty coverage. It also provides a visible site seal, helping establish trust and protect sensitive data for businesses.
SSL certificates encrypt information, authenticate your website domain and establish trust with internet users. They prevent data from being intercepted in plain text, boost SEO rankings, show the padlock icon in the address bar and protect online transactions and medical records.
Go to your Bluehost Marketplace or Security tab, select a premium TLS certificate plan and complete payment. The certificate authority then verifies your identity through a validation process. This validation process provides stronger encryption, extended validation and advanced protection for sensitive online transactions and businesses.
You can renew your SSL certificate quickly by following these steps:
Yes. On VPS or dedicated hosting, you can upload your certificate signing request in Web Host Manager (WHM). It installs the digital certificate and enables “Always Redirect to HTTPS.” This ensures all websites and clients have access to a secure connection using SSL and TLS.
Without SSL, your browser shows “Not Secure” in the address bar. Internet users risk data theft when credit card numbers or login credentials are transmitted in plain text. Lack of a digital certificate damages trust, SEO rankings and online transaction security.
Google rewards websites using SSL certificates and TLS certificates with better SEO rankings. Internet users trust websites showing https, a padlock icon. These signals establish digital identity, protect data and encourage customers to stay secure.
Common issues include expired certificates, untrusted certificate authorities or mismatched website domains. When the browser attempts to connect and the server sends an invalid digital certificate, users may see warnings. Regular renewal and proper setup help encrypt information and establish trust.
Bluehost includes free SSL certificates via Let’s Encrypt. Premium SSL Certificates are available at an additional cost, depending on the validation type. Extended validation certificates and wildcard certificates provide stronger encryption and warranty coverage. They also enhance digital identity protection, making them ideal for businesses handling sensitive data and online transactions.
Look in the browser address bar: a padlock icon and https indicate a secure connection. During the SSL handshake, the server sends a digital certificate verified by a trusted third party. This proves encryption, establishes trust and protects sensitive data.
