Thread: SSL Question

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone knew what the next step was, after I bought my SSL Certificate from vodahost.net. Is it good for only 1 website or the 2 I have?

How do I update my website so SSL is active?

I recently bought SSL, because of sensitive info I receive through forms.

So basically I am confused on the next step should be.

Thanks,

Mark

PS- my websites are as following

http://denversinsurance.com
http://insuranceformyevent.com

1. Make sure all your links have the "https://..." infront.
2. Set, in anyway, a .htacess file that will redirect non ssl URLs to the ssl ones.

2. Set, in anyway, a .htacess file that will redirect non ssl URLs to the ssl ones.

Can you explain how you do this?

Supposing that you only need your contact form to be in ssl, and supposing the form is called "contact", this is the code to use in your .htaccess file:

RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule ^contact/?$ https://example.com/contact/ [R=301,L]

This will redirect either
http://example.com/contact
-or-
http://example.com/contact/
to
https://example.com/contact/

I am sorry I am still confused.. Do I save the file like this? I just need all of my forms and contact page to be ssl secured. How do you do that?

my site is http://denversinsurance.com

"Is it good for only 1 website or the 2"

Each cert protects only one domainname.

If the 2nd domainname is under the same name and on the same server, you can buy a Wild Card which is suppose to be cheaper.
