What is the ssl checker?

The SSL checker connects to a domain over HTTPS and reads its SSL/TLS certificate: who issued it, which domains it covers, when it starts and when it expires. Paste a full URL and the domain name is extracted automatically.

HTTPS is a ranking signal, and browsers show a full-page warning when a certificate is invalid or expired. Checking your certificates regularly prevents the lost traffic and trust that an expired certificate causes.

How to use the ssl checker

  1. 1Enter the domain name, or paste any URL of the website.
  2. 2Press Check to read the certificate.
  3. 3Review the issuer, the validity period and the covered domains.

Frequently asked questions

What is an SSL certificate?

An SSL/TLS certificate proves the identity of a website and enables the encrypted HTTPS connection between the browser and the server.

What happens when a certificate expires?

Browsers show a security warning and most visitors leave. Automated renewals, like the ones from Let's Encrypt, avoid this.

Does SSL affect SEO?

Yes. HTTPS is a lightweight ranking signal, and an invalid certificate can stop users and crawlers from reaching your pages.

Should I check www and non-www?

Yes, if both are used. A certificate has to cover every host name that serves your website.
