Types of SSL certificates
Domain validation
This type does an efficient check to confirm that the domain name is active, allowing it to be activated quickly.
Extended Validation
Our most thorough check, this type verifies data such as WHOIS, CoC, EV documents and even performs a telephone check.
One domain, multiple domains, or a wildcard?
Single domain
This certificate secures one (sub)domain name, including the www subdomain.
Multi-domain
Apply this certificate to multiple domain names that can be secured from the same IP address.
Wildcard
An essential option for extended sites, this certificate is valid for all subdomains of a domain name.
The Need for an SSL Certificate
An SSL certificate is necessary to secure your website with HTTPS and to safely collect and send data to your visitors. Especially when visitors can leave personal data, this information must be received, transmitted and stored securely. The introduction of the AVG/GDPR has made this aspect even more important. Read more about this in our article ‘ De AVG komt er aan. Wat betekent dat voor jou? ‘.
The benefits of an SSL certificate
An SSL certificate provides more than just secure transmission of data. Once the SSL certificate is installed, login and payment data are sent in a protected way. It creates a secure connection between the website and the server, which immediately gives your visitors confidence in the safety of your website or web shop.

A Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate is a digital “signature” that confirms the identity of a Web site and enables encryption of all information exchanged between the server and the visitor. This ensures a secure connection and protects sensitive data such as passwords, credit card numbers and personal information. You can recognize an SSL certificate by the padlock and “https” before the url in your browser’s address bar. It is a must-have for any website involving data exchange.
MANDATORY SECURING IS LEGALLY DEFINED AS FOLLOWS:
“Not only should the database containing customer files be secure, but access to the database should also include some form of security. For example, the data the customer enters during the ordering process should not be easily intercepted. This can be accomplished by establishing a secure connection between your website and the associated database containing customer data. One way to secure the connection is to use Secure Sockets Layer, or SSL for short, or Transport Layer Security, or TLS for short. These protocols protect the connection from third parties who want to hijack the data sent over the connection.”
Free and paid SSL certificates both offer encryption and security for your website. The difference is in validation levels, support and compatibility.
Free SSL certificates offer domain validation and are usually valid for a shorter period of time. However, they cannot be used in all server configurations and often have limited support.
Paid SSL certificates offer higher validation levels, longer validity periods and better support. They are also compatible with most server configurations and often include warranties for potential problems with the certificate.
