HTTPS for every website — included in hosting
Every macido hosting plan comes with a free Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. It is issued and renewed automatically — you don't lift a finger.
What SSL does for your website
SSL (TLS, to be precise) encrypts the traffic between visitors and your website: passwords, forms and orders travel protected. Visitors see a padlock in the browser instead of a “Not secure” warning — and that warning drives customers away faster than anything else.
HTTPS is also a ranking signal: Google has used it as a factor since 2014 and Chrome flags HTTP pages as not secure. That's why there's no surcharge and no setup with us — the certificate is issued automatically as soon as your domain is connected to the hosting, and renewed automatically before it expires.
How SSL works on macido hosting
Included in every plan
A Let's Encrypt certificate ships with every hosting plan — no surcharge, no hidden fees.
Automatic renewal
The certificate renews automatically before it expires. No reminders, no expired certificates.
Active right away
As soon as your domain points to our hosting, the certificate is issued automatically — usually within minutes.
Modern standards
TLS 1.2 and 1.3, HTTP/2 and automatic HTTP-to-HTTPS redirect on all plans.
For all your domains
Every domain and subdomain added to your hosting account gets its own certificate.
