What your SSL checker results mean – and what to do about them
Your result shows a status for each field. Here’s what each one actually means for your site, and whether you need to act.
Means: browsers show the padlock, visitors connect securely, nothing is wrong. Do: nothing — just don’t let it lapse near expiry.
Means: still working today, but the renewal window is open. Some older Indian mobile browsers warn a few days early. Do: confirm auto-renewal is on, or renew manually now.
Means: the certificate is fine but a middle link is missing — it may look secure on your desktop yet warn on Android and payment apps. Do: reinstall including the full CA bundle.
Means: the certificate is for a different hostname — often www vs non-www — so one version secures and the other warns. Do: reissue to cover both, and redirect to one.

Your SSL certificate isn’t working – here is why and how to fix it
These three problems account for over 90% of SSL issues reported by Indian website owners. Find your situation and follow the plain-English fix.
Why it happens: Let’s Encrypt certificates last 90 days. If your host does not auto-renew them, they expire silently.Some older shared hosting plans do not auto-renew.
How urgent is this? Extremely. Every minute your cert is expired, potential customers are leaving your site permanently.
2. Find SSL/TLS → Install or Renew Let’s Encrypt
3. Select your domain and click Install. Done in 2 minutes.
Why it happens: SSL certificates do not transfer between hosting providers. Your new host must issue a fresh certificate after your DNS points to them.
Common mistake: Waiting for the old certificate to transfer. It never will. You must install a new one from your new host’s control panel.
2. Go to new host control panel → SSL → Install Free SSL
3. Wait 5 minutes. Check again with our SSL checker above.
Why it happens: Mixed content — some images, scripts, or CSS files on your page still load over HTTP instead of HTTPS. Even one insecure resource triggers the browser warning.
This is NOT an SSL problem — your certificate is fine. It is a content problem that is easy to fix.

SSL certificate types & pricing at renewal
A buyer’s reference. All three validation levels use the same 256-bit encryption — the only difference is how much the certificate authority verifies your identity, plus the warranty. Most websites are well served by free DV (Let’s Encrypt); paid certificates matter mainly when you need verified organisation identity (OV/EV) or a warranty.
Vendor comparison — watch the renewal price
The cheapest first-year price is not always the cheapest to keep. The renewal column is where some vendors quietly raise the price after an introductory term. Figures below are indicative India rates — always confirm on the vendor’s own checkout before buying.
