How Does Shared SSL Work on Fast2Host?
Fast2Host provides free shared SSL for customers who need to secure parts of their website without purchasing a dedicated certificate. This allows you to access secure content using a URL similar to:
https://secure.fast2host.com/your-domain/
Your exact shared SSL URL will be shown inside your hosting control panel:
- Plesk: Websites & Domains → Hosting Settings → SSL/TLS
- cPanel: Security → SSL/TLS Status → View Certificate Details
When shared SSL is enabled, a dedicated folder will appear in your hosting file manager:
Plesk: httpsdocs/ or a system-created shared SSL directory
cPanel: Public SSL path assigned automatically by AutoSSL
Any page you upload to the shared SSL directory can be accessed securely. Example:
https://secure.fast2host.com/your-domain/mysecuredpage.html
You do not need to purchase anything for shared SSL, as it is included with all hosting plans.
If you prefer a certificate for https://www.your-domain.com, Fast2Host can install your own commercial SSL certificate for an additional fee. Please contact our Sales Team for pricing.
