With the rapid development of the internet and the increase in e-commerce volume, there is a trust problem on all sites where data transfer takes place, especially e-commerce sites. SSL Certificate provides data security by encrypting data sent during data transfer operations between the website (sender) and the counter server (receiver).
To use our SSL certificate, our website must run on a dedicated IP address. Do not forget to request a dedicated IP address when purchasing from your hosting provider.
Before starting the installation, we need to create a mail account named admin@ozgurciftci.com.tr to be able to perform SSL key verifications.
To start the installation, we first create our key from the “Certificate Signing Requests (CSR)” option.
We need to fill in our domain name completely and correctly. There is no correction option if it is wrong; we will need to fill out the form again. We can create our domain with www so our SSL certificate will work with or without www.
We write the mail address we created. (NOTE: If we write a different mail address, the verification email will not arrive.) We create our CSR key with the “Generate” option at the bottom.
After creating the CSR, we can obtain the key from our SSL certificate provider. For standard e-commerce pages or general needs, we make a Positive SSL purchase. Netinternet works with the COMODO company.
We copy the CSR key we created from cPanel and paste it into the relevant field. For “Select the server software”, we need to select “Apache-MODSSL” for cPanel. We need to make the selection according to the Plesk panel or the platform we use. Otherwise, we will create the wrong key and cannot complete our installation.
After completing the SSL purchase, we open our admin email, confirm the key in the mail, and return to the SSL purchase screen on Comodo panel. We download the SSL certificate, open the CRT key, and copy its contents.
We return to cPanel and go to “Manage SSL Sites”. We select our domain and when we click “Install Certificate”, our SSL installation will be complete. For our SSL certificate to be active, our website must be on a dedicated IP address. After the TTL period due to IP address change, our SSL service will start working with the changes to be made on the software side.
**NOTE: On the software side, it is necessary to redirect requests coming as http to https in the .htaccess file.
