How Do I Add Free SSL to My WordPress Site?

SSL certificates are a way to ensure that your traffic is encrypted when communicating with a web server. They’re usually included with a paid hosting plan, but they’re also available for purchase individually. To add SSL to your WordPress site, you’ll first need to purchase a SSL certificate from a reliable provider. Once you have the certificate, you’ll need to add the certificate’s private key to your WordPress site’s server.

To do this, you’ll need to access your site’s server’s configuration file and locate the ssl.key file. You’ll then need to copy the key file to the wp-content/ssl directory. Finally, you’ll need to update your WordPress site’s settings to include the certificate and private key.
