Frequently Asked Questions

Enter the domain name and click Check SSL Certificate. The tool verifies the certificate status, expiration date, encryption strength, and provides an overall health score out of 100.

An expired SSL certificate causes browsers to display security warnings to visitors, which can block access to your site. It also breaks HTTPS encryption and can negatively affect search engine rankings.

Check your SSL certificate at least monthly or set up alerts before it expires. Most certificates are valid for 90 days to 1 year, and renewing before expiration prevents service interruptions.
