How do I install or renew an SSL certificate?

SSL Certificates at HostDango

An SSL certificate enables HTTPS on your website and is required for any site that handles logins, forms, or payments. It also helps with Google search rankings.

Free SSL (AutoSSL) — included with all plans

All HostDango hosting plans include free AutoSSL certificates. These install and renew automatically — you don't need to do anything.

To check or manually trigger AutoSSL: log into cPanel → Security → SSL/TLS Status → click Run AutoSSL.

My site still shows Not Secure after SSL is installed

This usually means mixed content — some resources on your page are still loading over HTTP. In WordPress, the Really Simple SSL plugin fixes this automatically.

Force HTTPS redirect

Add this to your .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
