What’s the difference?

All SSL certificates encrypt data in transit. The difference is how much identity verification takes place — and how much trust visitors see.

DV

Domain Validated

Instant issuance

The CA confirms you control the domain. No company details are verified. Padlock appears in browser. Sufficient for most websites.

Best for: Blogs, portfolios, informational sites
OV

Organisation Validated

1–3 day review

The CA verifies your domain AND your organisation exists as a legal entity. Company details appear in the certificate — visible to savvy visitors.

Best for: E-commerce, SMEs, professional services
EV

Extended Validation

3–7 day review

The most rigorous vetting. Legal, physical and operational existence verified. Some browsers show the company name directly in the address bar.

Best for: Banks, finance, healthcare, enterprise
How it works

Live in under 5 minutes

No technical knowledge required. We handle the entire setup on your behalf.

1

Pick your plan

Choose hosting — SSL is included free — or order a standalone certificate for any domain.

2

Domain verified

We confirm domain ownership via DNS or a quick email to your registered address. Takes seconds for DV.

3

Certificate issued

The certificate is generated by a globally trusted CA and installed on your server automatically.

4

HTTPS active

Your site shows a padlock, all traffic is encrypted, and HTTPS redirects are applied. Done.

FAQ

Common questions

Everything you wanted to know about SSL but were afraid to ask.

Do I need SSL if I don’t take payments?
Yes. Google Chrome marks non-HTTPS sites as "Not Secure" regardless of whether you take payments. SSL also improves your Google ranking, protects your visitors' passwords and form data, and is now expected by virtually every user.
Is SSL really free on hosting plans?
Yes — every Somclick hosting plan includes a free Domain Validated (DV) SSL certificate that is auto-installed and auto-renewed forever. You never need to lift a finger.
What is the difference between DV, OV and EV?
All three encrypt traffic equally. The difference is identity verification. DV only checks you control the domain. OV verifies your organisation is a real legal entity. EV applies the strictest vetting and displays your company name directly in some browsers' address bars — maximising visitor trust.
Can one certificate cover multiple domains?
Yes. A Wildcard SSL covers your root domain and all sub-domains (e.g. blog.yourdomain.com, shop.yourdomain.com). A Multi-Domain (SAN) certificate covers several completely different domain names. Both are available on our OV and EV plans — ask us for a custom quote.
Will you install it for me?
Absolutely. On Somclick hosting the certificate is installed automatically with zero action required. For external hosts or standalone certificates, our support team will handle the full installation — CSR generation, certificate installation, HTTPS redirects and HSTS configuration.
What happens if my SSL expires?
We send renewal reminders well in advance and auto-renew whenever possible. If a certificate does lapse for any reason, browsers will display a full-page warning to visitors. We monitor all certificates and will alert you immediately if there is any issue.
Does SSL affect website speed?
Negligibly. TLS 1.3 with HTTPS/2 is actually faster than plain HTTP in many situations due to multiplexing. The encryption overhead is a few milliseconds at most — far outweighed by the SEO and trust benefits.
