Install an SSL using AutoSSL on my Linux Hosting
SSL certificates encrypt data passing from your visitor's browser to your website. We’ve added AutoSSL, a cPanel feature which is designed to assign and renew SSL certificates for every website managed on your cPanel account. As of Jan 4, 2023 AutoSSL is not available on Linux Hosting Economy plans.
Required: For AutoSSL to work on your domain you must:
- Add your domain to your cPanel account.
- Point your domain's DNS to your Linux Hosting IP address (including Web Application Firewalls and Content Delivery Networks).
- Make sure existing SSL certificates on your domain are expired or uninstalled.
- Sign in to your GoDaddy product page.
- Select Web Hosting. Then, next to the Linux Hosting account you want to use, select Manage.
- In the hosting account Dashboard, select cPanel Admin.
- On the cPanel home page, in the Security section, select SSL/TLS Status.
- Select the checkboxes for your desired domains, or select the top checkbox to select all.
- Select Run AutoSSL.
A success message will confirm your SSL successfully installed. Your AutoSSL certificates will automatically be renewed.
