What is an SSL Certificate?

An SSL certificate encrypts the connection between your website and visitors — activating the HTTPS padlock in the browser and protecting data in transit. Google uses HTTPS as a ranking signal, and browsers warn users against non-HTTPS sites. Web Design Labs includes free DV SSL (Let's Encrypt) on all hosting plans and sells premium OV, EV and Wildcard SSL from Comodo and DigiCert for businesses requiring higher trust levels.

Who needs a premium SSL?

  • E-commerce stores that need their company name visible in the browser bar (EV SSL)
  • Businesses processing payments requiring the highest trust validation
  • Companies with multiple subdomains needing Wildcard SSL
  • SA businesses needing OV SSL for compliance
  • Any site that needs more than a free DV certificate

Frequently Asked Questions

SSL Certificates FAQ South Africa

Is SSL free on all hosting plans?
Yes. Web Design Labs includes free Let's Encrypt DV SSL on all hosting plans — auto-installed and auto-renewed. No setup or annual fee. Premium OV, EV and Wildcard SSL are available for purchase when business compliance requires it.
What is the difference between DV, OV and EV SSL?
DV (Domain Validated) only verifies domain control — quick and free but shows no company info. OV (Organisation Validated) also verifies your company identity. EV (Extended Validation) displays your company name in the browser address bar — the highest visible trust level.
What is a Wildcard SSL certificate?
A Wildcard SSL covers your root domain and all first-level subdomains with one certificate (e.g. *.webdesignlabs.co.za covers shop.webdesignlabs.co.za, mail.webdesignlabs.co.za etc.). More cost-effective than individual certificates per subdomain.
Does SSL affect my Google ranking?
Yes — HTTPS is a confirmed Google ranking signal. Browsers like Chrome also display a "Not Secure" warning on HTTP sites, directly damaging user trust and conversion rates.
How quickly is an SSL certificate issued?
DV SSL is issued within minutes. OV SSL takes 1–3 business days. EV SSL takes 3–7 business days. Free DV (Let's Encrypt) is issued instantly on all hosting plans.
Can you install the SSL on my existing hosting?
Yes — if you host with Web Design Labs we can install your SSL directly. For other providers we can guide you through installation or manage it as a paid service.
