Free SSL Certificate
Every Web60 site gets an automatic Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate. HTTPS from day one, renewed automatically, no configuration required.
SSL certificates encrypt the connection between your website and your visitors’ browsers. That padlock icon in the address bar tells your customers their data is secure. With Web60, every site gets a free Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate issued automatically when your site is created. There’s nothing to buy, nothing to configure, and nothing to remember to renew.
Google has made HTTPS a ranking signal since 2014, and modern browsers actively warn visitors about sites without SSL. An unsecured website loses trust immediately — visitors see warnings, forms feel unsafe, and search rankings drop. With Web60, you never have to worry about this. Your SSL certificate is issued within minutes of your site going live, and it renews automatically every 60 days without any intervention.
Many hosting providers charge extra for SSL, or force you through a complicated setup process involving CSR generation, certificate authorities, and manual installation. With Web60, it’s handled entirely behind the scenes. Our infrastructure uses Let’s Encrypt — a trusted, free certificate authority backed by major tech companies — and our servers manage the entire lifecycle automatically.
SSL isn’t just about the padlock. It also enables HTTP/2, which makes your website load significantly faster by allowing multiple requests over a single connection. Your visitors get a more secure and faster browsing experience, and your SEO benefits from both. All of this is included in your €60/year Web60 plan with zero extra cost.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to set up SSL myself?
No. Web60 handles everything automatically. When your site is created, a Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate is issued and installed. It renews every 60 days without any action from you.
Is Let’s Encrypt SSL secure enough for business websites?
Yes. Let’s Encrypt is a trusted certificate authority used by over 300 million websites worldwide. It provides the same encryption strength as paid certificates. For business websites, blogs, and e-commerce, it’s more than sufficient.
Will my site show the padlock icon?
Yes. Every Web60 site loads over HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate, which means browsers display the padlock icon in the address bar. Visitors know their connection is secure.
What happens if my SSL certificate expires?
It won’t. Web60 automatically renews your certificate well before expiry. Our monitoring system tracks every certificate’s expiry date and alerts our team if anything needs attention. In years of operation, we’ve never had a customer’s certificate expire unexpectedly.
Can I use my own SSL certificate instead?
For most customers, the automatic Let’s Encrypt certificate is the best option. If you have a specific requirement for an EV or OV certificate, contact our support team and we can discuss custom SSL options.
