For quality SSL certificates at affordable prices, Namecheap is the perfect choice. With Comodo CA — one of the world’s most trusted Certificate Authorities — as its partner, by purchasing a Namecheap SSL, you’re choosing security without compromise.
Namecheap’s Wildcard SSL certificates are no exception. If you have a single domain with multiple subdomains of one level linked to it (e.g., example.com and *.example.com), a Wildcard certificate is ideal for encrypting everything. Many website owners decide to use subdomains to divide up their website so that each section is considered a separate site by search engines. Common examples of subdomains include:
- store.example.com
- blog.example.com
- dev.example.com
- mail.example.com
- login.example.com
Whether you have 1 or 100 subdomains, a Wildcard SSL will secure all of them under a single certificate. You don’t even need to have subdomains yet for a Wildcard SSL to be valuable. Installing one on your site will automatically secure any subdomains you create later, as long as it’s linked to the main domain.
Wildcard SSLs are the most convenient and cost-effective way of securing your website portfolio, whether you have multiple subdomains now or plan on establishing several in the future. By securing everything under one certificate, you can potentially reduce costs and will only have one expiration date to keep track of rather than several separate ones.
Our Wildcard SSLs are available in Domain Validation (DV) and Organization Validation (OV), so you can choose the perfect validation level for bringing your customers and website visitors peace of mind. And if you need help along the way, Namecheap’s support team is available 24/7 to assist you with anything you might need.
