An SSL certificate shows current and perspective clients that your website is completely secure and safe for transactions.

What is an SSL certificate?

An SSL/TLS certificate is displayed for websites in the forms of a padlock icon in the address bar, a green bar, and a URL that starts with https://. Behind the scenes, this means that any information passed between the server and a visitor’s web browser is securely encrypted.

A secure connection is vital for any website that requests or stores personal information such as contact details or payment information. SSL/TLS is the globally recognised standard for secure data encryption between server and browser. All our SSL certificates are provided and verified by leading security experts Let’s Encrypt and GeoTrust.

TRUST AND AUTHORITY

Worth having for any website

An SSL certificate not only signals trust and authority to your website visitors, it also helps protect them when browsing your website. Search engines such as Google have openly stated that they view an SSL certificate as a mark of trust and that having one can directly improve your search engine rankings.

Furthermore, research has shown that a valid SSL certificate reduces abandoned baskets, increases sales, and makes people more confident about shopping with you. It’s a must-have when you’re selling online.

Q: Should I get a Free SSL, Standard SSL or an Extended SSL?

Research from Verisign has shown that up to 93% of visitors are put off buying if a website doesn’t have the expected ‘green bar’ (only available with our Extended SSL). If you’re serious about your business, especially if you run an ecommerce store, an Extended SSL may be the way to go. If payments aren’t a central part of your business but you still request or private details, such as login information, a Free or Simple SSL with its accompanying padlock is fine.

Q: Do I need web hosting to buy an SSL?

An SSL certificate is attached to your hosting package rather than your domain name. For this reason, you’ll need to host your website with us even if your domain name is registered elsewhere. You can take a look at our powerful yet affordable hosting packages on our Web Hosting page.

Alexander Burzotta

I’m an entrepreneur with multiple businesses under my belt, I have a few websites that were hosted with one company, domains registered with another, I asked my developer to consolidate all of it and he used UK Pro Hosting, can’t complain at all. I’ve never had any downtime on any of my websites, never missed an email and to get just 1 bill each month makes my accountant and me very happy.

Bennetts Design

I moved mine and my clients websites over, great service can’t find a fault, fast and reliable which is what everyone wants. Pricing is competitive and the free CDN is a nice touch, using Zizzy Local as well has helped secure more clients.

Hill Essence

I moved my website over from 123Reg because they bumped up their renwal prices. I found UK Pro Hosting and it was simple to migrate over, haven’t had any issues at all, for the price they’re fantastic.

Simply blown away with this company, yes support is amazing but their control panel and hosting platform blows all that cPanel rubbish out of the water. Properly load balanced, email not on the same servers as web and optimised for speed. Fine grain control over everything, excellent for developers. I have managed to get rid of multiple VPS’s and get rid of all of the admin headache. UK Pro Hosting you rock!

I’ve been with 4 or 5 hosting providers over my career and at first I was hesitant to move from a server I’d spent a lot of time, money and love on with another company, however, I am so glad I did move to UK Pro Hosting. As they are UK based and reasonably local to my hometown of Southend, I wanted to do the right thing and support local. I was also going to save a few quid. Really guys, I’d lost hope in hosting providers until I met you. Heartily Recommended.
