Using the secure
server
If you are on a web hosting plan or package
with shared secure socket layer (SSL), you can use the secure server to encrypt
important and sensitive information. However, we strongly recommend using the
secure server only when absolutely necessary, such as when collecting credit
card numbers or other bank information.
- Ask us to set-up the SSL for you. This is actually a new directory
called "ssl" that will be installed in your root directory.
- Put the pages and files that you want shown securely in that
"ssl" directory.
- To get to those pages using the secure server, link to the files in the
following manner: https://www.netservers.net/domainname.com/filename
where domain name is your domain name (i.e. food.com) and
filename is the name of your file inside the "ssl"
directory (i.e order.html).
