BurjHost provides free SSL certificates via AutoSSL (powered by Let's Encrypt or cPanel's built-in provider). This happens automatically on most servers, but here is how to ensure it is active and force it to run.
How to Activate Free SSL:
-
Log in to your cPanel.
-
Navigate to "SSL/TLS Status" (often found under the "Security" section).
-
You will see a table listing all domains and subdomains on your account, along with their current SSL status.
-
Check the box next to the domain(s) that do not have SSL active.
-
Click the button labeled "Run AutoSSL" or "Start AutoSSL."
-
The system will now communicate with the certificate authority and install the free certificate. This usually takes 1-5 minutes.
Verification:
-
Once complete, visit
https://yourdomain.comin your browser. -
Click the padlock icon in the address bar. It should say "Connection is secure."
Note: AutoSSL typically runs automatically every night, so even if you miss this step, your site will likely get a certificate within 24 hours.
