SSL Certificates
All Weldship domains get automatic SSL certificates. Your sites are always served over HTTPS with no configuration required.
Automatic SSL
When you add a domain, we automatically:
- Provision an SSL certificate
- Configure HTTPS
- Set up HTTP to HTTPS redirect
- Renew before expiration
Certificate Details
- Provider - AWS Certificate Manager
- Encryption - TLS 1.2 and 1.3
- Validity - Auto-renewed before expiration
- Coverage - Domain + www subdomain
No Action Needed
SSL just works. You don't need to buy, install, or renew certificates.
Provisioning Time
Certificate provisioning typically takes:
- Subdomains - Instant (pre-provisioned)
- Custom domains - 5-15 minutes after DNS verification
HTTPS Enforcement
All HTTP requests are automatically redirected to HTTPS. This ensures:
- Secure data transmission
- Better SEO rankings
- Trust indicators in browsers
Troubleshooting
Certificate Still Pending?
- Verify DNS records are correctly configured
- Wait for DNS propagation (up to 48 hours)
- Check domain verification status
Mixed Content Warnings?
If your site loads resources over HTTP, browsers show warnings. Ensure all resources use HTTPS or protocol-relative URLs.
