    You should make sure that the SSL will really secure your website. It should have green padlock. SSL provider should provide you the SSL certificate with private key and CA bundle. After SSL installation, you should check whether the provided SSL is resolving properly on your website or not.

    If it is not resolving then please ask your SSL provider to reissue the SSL certificate.

    How quickly do you need your SSL Certificate? It's an important question and may help determine your selection. If you are ready to start accepting payments online immediately, then you may need to select an SSL Certificate that can be issued instantly so you don't lose out on potential sales. You may decide to install a temporary low assurance SSL Certificate while you go through a more thorough validation process for a stronger SSL Certificate with higher website security levels or a greater warranty.

    The CA Security Council (CASC), an advocacy group committed to the advancement of online security that we joined in 2013, recently published a handy infographic – What Kind of SSL/TLS Certificate Do I Need? (check it out below this post). While the infographic provides a great high level overview of the main options for certificates and provides some examples for each, we tend to get a lot of questions on this, so I thought some further explanation would be helpful.
    Step 1 - Is Your Domain Registered?
    Step 2 – What Trust Level Do You Require?
    Step 3 – How Many Domains Do You Need to Protect with This Certificate?

    To choose an SSL Certificate, first thing comes in my mind will be what my requirement is and after that I’ll decide on which SSL/TLS Certificate to go for or I say which brand to choose. If I’m running a simple blog, just to provide an information, I’ll look towards free SSL/TLS Certificate. No doubt, some of the negative sides are there for free SSL/TLS Certificate, but it’s not that serious that you cannot overlook. If it has serious problems, they wouldn’t have been in market. I’ve written about is there any possible risk about using Free SSL/TLS Certificate, if you want you can look into it.

    What point you must consider while buying an SSL Certificate?

    How secure the certificate authority (CA) is.
    Determine what type of certificate you need.
    Read reviews or rating of the SSL Certificate provider.
    Check out money back policy
    SSL Certificate issuance time
    Other trust features along with SSL like padlock, free site seal or green address bar
    SSL Certificate Warranty and browser compatibility

    Price and Number of Domains

    If you just need to validate one or two sites, go with single-name and wildcard certificates. However, if you need to certify multiple domains, choose a multi-domain SSL certificate. Pick the best certificate depending on whether you want to certify one, several, or all of your domains and subdomains.

    If you only need to secure one domain (e.g. . example.com), then you should purchase a single domain, or standard certificate. You have your choice of trust level – DV, OV, or EV. If, however, you need to secure multiple domains (e.g. for regional sites - .com, .
