Free SSL Certificate
Protect your website with a free SSL certificate – HTTPS for everyone.
Free With Every Hosting
Every FireStorm hosting package includes a free SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt. Automatic installation and renewal – no manual effort needed.
Better Google Ranking
HTTPS is an official Google ranking factor. With an SSL certificate, your website is preferred in search results and marked as secure.
Strengthen Visitor Trust
The padlock icon in the browser signals security to your visitors. Encrypted data transfer protects sensitive information like form data and passwords.
SSL Certificate – Security and Trust for Your Website
An SSL certificate encrypts data transfer between your website and visitors. The green padlock icon and HTTPS address signal security and trustworthiness. At FireStorm, a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate is included free with every hosting package.
SSL is no longer optional but mandatory. Google Chrome marks websites without SSL as insecure, which deters visitors. Furthermore, HTTPS is an official Google ranking factor – websites with SSL are preferred in search results. For online stores, SSL is even legally required.
FireStorm installs and renews your SSL certificate fully automatically. You don't need to configure anything – the certificate is activated when your domain is set up and automatically renewed every 90 days. Wildcard certificates for all subdomains are also available.
For businesses with enhanced security requirements, we also offer premium SSL certificates with Extended Validation (EV) and Organisation Validation (OV). These display the company name in the address bar and provide additional trust signals for your customers.

FAQ
Yes, every FireStorm hosting package includes a free SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt. It is automatically installed and renewed every 90 days. There are no hidden costs or fees for the standard SSL certificate.
No, installation is fully automatic. Once your domain points to your hosting, the SSL certificate is automatically created and activated. You don't need to perform any technical steps – everything happens in the background.
The free Let's Encrypt SSL offers the same encryption strength as premium certificates. Premium SSL certificates (OV/EV) additionally provide company validation and display the company name in the certificate – strengthening customer trust.
The standard Let's Encrypt certificate secures your main domain and the www subdomain. For additional subdomains, additional certificates are automatically created. Wildcard certificates for all subdomains are also available.
SSL encrypts data transfer and protects your visitors' data. Without SSL, Google Chrome marks your website as insecure. HTTPS is also a Google ranking factor and is legally required for online stores.
