Free SSL is suitable for many projects. Paid SSL is designed for businesses that require trust, validation, and support.

Frequently asked questions

The SSL certificate you need depends on what type of website you run and how much trust you need to show visitors.

• Personal websites, blogs, or portfolios → A Domain Validation (DV) SSL is usually sufficient. It encrypts traffic and removes browser security warnings.
• Business websites collecting customer data or logins → An Organization Validation (OV) SSL is recommended. It verifies your company identity and builds trust.
• Ecommerce, SaaS, or payment websites → An Extended Validation (EV) SSL provides the highest level of trust and is ideal for transactions and sensitive data.

If you are unsure, using an SSL selection wizard can help you choose the correct certificate in seconds.

For ecommerce websites, an Extended Validation (EV) SSL certificate is the best choice.

• EV SSL is designed for:
• Online stores
• Payment processing
• Customer accounts
• High-value or sensitive transactions

EV SSL certificates verify the legal identity of the business and provide the highest level of customer confidence, which can reduce cart abandonment and increase conversions.

If your ecommerce site operates multiple subdomains, an EV Wildcard SSL may be the most scalable solution.

An SSL certificate is a digital security feature that protects data shared between your website and visitors sent, such as passwords, contact details, payment details and other sensitive information. It keeps sensitive information safe from hackers. The padlock icon or "https" in the browser shows your website is secure.

SSL-certificaten zijn cruciaal, niet alleen voor de bescherming van gebruikers, maar ook voor zoekmachineoptimalisatie (SEO) en de zichtbaarheid van websites. Sinds augustus 2014 heeft Google aangegeven dat SSL moet worden geïmplementeerd om ervoor te zorgen dat zowel intern als het internet in het algemeen veiliger zijn. Om deze reden geeft Google de voorkeur aan websites met geldige SSL-certificaten, waarbij hun algoritmen websites met SSL consequent hoger plaatsen in de zoekresultaten.

While Google still considers other factors important in ranking websites, the security of a website is essential for its success. It is probable that even more weight will be given to user safety in the future. Acquiring an SSL certificate allows you to provide your customers with confidence in the security of their personal information and helps boost your website's ranking above those without SSL. Your customers will value the trust and assurance your website exudes, encouraging them to return repeatedly.

• Ongoing investment in enhanced security
• Comprehensive compensation in case of any mishaps

• Free reissue in case of a spelling mistake or loss of the SSL certificate

Cheap SSL certificates (e.g. a free SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt) have some limitations compared to the more expensive ones.

Betaalbare SSL-certificaten laten geen uitgebreide validatie toe, wat betekent dat organisatorische gegevens er niet in verwerkt kunnen worden. Hierdoor zullen uw bezoekers minder vertrouwen in u hebben. Beperkt vertrouwen leidt tot beperkte verkoop en daarom moeten webwinkeliers afzien van goedkope SSL-certificaten. Een SSL-certificaat met uitgebreide validatie zorgt voor minimaal een omzetstijging van 25%.

A complimentary SSL certificate, such as those issued by Let's Encrypt, is only suitable for a website. For file servers, applications, emails, and similar purposes, a paid SSL certificate is necessary.

Bovendien kunt u geen Wildcard SSL-certificaat gebruiken voor al uw subdomeinen. Daarom is een premium certificaat (bijvoorbeeld met uitgebreide validatie) ook in dit geval aan te raden. Bovendien kunt u met een goedkoop SSL-certificaat de Sectigo Trust Seal niet op uw betaalpagina plaatsen. Door hun embleem op te nemen, zullen uw bezoekers meer vertrouwen in u hebben.

Tot slot, als je kiest voor een gratis SSL-certificaat, heb je geen recht op schadevergoeding in geval van misbruik.

Het indienen van een aanvraag voor een SSL-certificaat is een eenvoudig proces. Begin met het indienen van uw aanvraag via onze website en wij beheren alle verdere stappen. Afhankelijk van het validatietype dat u selecteert (domeinvalidatie, organisatievalidatie of uitgebreide validatie), wordt uw aanvraag onmiddellijk verwerkt of wordt uw organisatie kort daarna geverifieerd. Deze verificatie is essentieel voor organisatievalidatie of uitgebreide validatie om de legitimiteit van het aanvragende bedrijf te bevestigen. Alleen na een succesvolle verificatie worden de bedrijfsgegevens opgenomen in het certificaat.

All SSL certificates provide the same strong TLS encryption. The difference lies in how much identity verification is performed.

• DV (Domain Validation)
Verifies ownership of the domain only. Best for personal or informational websites.

• OV (Organization Validation)
Verifies the business behind the website, including company details. Ideal for professional and business websites.

• EV (Extended Validation)
Requires the most rigorous verification and provides the highest level of trust. Best for ecommerce, financial services, and high-risk transactions.

In short:
DV = basic security, OV = verified business trust, EV = maximum trust and credibility.

There is no single “best” SSL certificate for every website — the best choice depends on use case.

• For a simple website or blog → DV SSL
• For a business or company website → OV SSL
• For an ecommerce or high-trust website → EV SSL

The best SSL certificate is the one that matches:

• Your website type
• The level of trust your visitors expect
• Whether you collect personal or payment data

Choosing the correct SSL improves security, trust, and user confidence without unnecessary complexity.
