Purchasing SSL Certificates Through Plesk

The links for purchasing SSL certificates in Plesk let you purchase either certificates from your provider if they offer their own certificates, or certificates from Parallels in the MyPlesk outlet. These links may also be unavailable to you if your provider decides so.

To purchase an SSL certificate through Plesk:

1. If you have access to several subscriptions, select the required subscription in the Subscription box at the top of the screen. Or, to view sites of all your subscriptions, select All subscriptions.
2. On Websites & Domains, select the site you want to protect with an SSL certificate.
3. Click Secure Your Sites.
4. Click Add SSL Certificate.
5. Specify the following certificate parameters:
   • Certificate name. This will help you identify this certificate in the repository.
   • Encryption level. Choose the encryption level of your SSL certificate. We recommend that you choose a value more than 1024 bit.
   • Your location and organization name. The values you enter should not exceed the length of 64 symbols.
   • The domain name for which you want to purchase an SSL certificate. This should be a fully qualified domain name. Example: your-domain.com.
   • The website administrator's email address.
6. Make sure that all the provided information is correct and accurate, as it will be used to generate your private key.
7. Click Buy SSL Certificate.
8. Complete all steps of an SSL certificate purchase in the online store and you will receive your SSL certificate by email.
