How to Get and Install Free SSL (HTTPS)

Most people would be most happy if you get something for free :d so am I, nah! on this occasion I want to share information about how to get free SSL and install the free SSL into Cpanel.

What is SSL?

More clear information about SSL you can read in the article contained in an SEO blog, the article is entitled the use of SSL. Because everything has been reviewed with the following details, a video tutorial is provided on how to install a VPS.

Free SSL

So far, only a few people know about it, most articles about how to get SSL of course tell about free SSL from Cloud Flare, other than that there are actually two more SSL providers that provide certificates for free, even one of them is giving it up to 3 years for free. .

With SSL prices that are not cheap, it really makes very few people install SSL (changing http to https). Therefore, this free SSL facility is of course something that is highly expected.

In general, the function of SSL is to encrypt the amount of data that enters a server. With SSL, the security of internet users will be better. In fact, now SSL has been entered into one of the Google ranking factors related to SEO.
