SSL Security and Your Site

Calling pages or forms securely is an important step in collecting information in a confidential, private manner. "SSL" (secure socket layer) security is a safe, secure method of Internet transmission, and as a Conquest Hosting customer you can use what is called a "shared path" to call your pages and scripts securely. There's no charge for this capability, and it's easy to do!

NOTE: If you do not want to call your pages securely with our server name in the browser url (for example: https://host.conquesthosting.net/yourdomainname/filename.html), but would rather use your domain name only (example: https://yourdomainname.com/filename.html) then you will need to purchase a Secure Certificate - prices start at $99/year - More Info about Certs

How to use the FREE shared Secure Server
All you have to do in order to call your file securely using our Secure Server is to create your file as you would normally but call it using the following secure address: https://host.conquesthosting.net/yourdomainname/yourfile.html. Please note that you do not add the extension (.com, .net, etc.) after your domain name.

Note: Be sure to include the "s" in https, and do not include the .com (etc.) or the www. in your domain name of this URL. 

Yourfile.html should be in your www directory. If you want to call a file in a directory below your www directory, just make the necessary changes to the address - https://host.conquesthosting.net/yourdomainname/subdirectory/yourfile.html. Please note that you do not add the extension (.com, .net, etc.) after your domain name.
