Overview

An SSL certificate is typically added to a domain that you already have hosted in your account. It’s assigned to a specific domain name when it’s purchased.

A Stand-alone SSL certificate is also an option. This enables you to buy an SSL certificate from GreggHost and utilize it at a separate business. This post will lead you through the steps of getting a certificate like this.

Adding a Stand-alone SSL certificate

Select Secure Certificates from the drop-down menu.
