How Do I Install a Free Let's Encrypt SSL Certificate in Plesk?

Let's Encrypt is a free SSL certificate that makes your site open securely with https://. In Plesk it installs in a few clicks and renews automatically before it expires.

Before you start
  • Your domain's name servers must point to webevi and propagation must be complete.
  • For online shops we also offer paid certificates with organisation validation.

Step by step

  1. Log in to your Plesk panel at https://yourdomain.com:8443 or from the service page in your client area.
  2. On the Websites & Domains page, click SSL/TLS Certificates under your domain.
  3. Click Install next to the free certificate from Let's Encrypt.
  4. Enter your email address; also secure the www address and, if needed, the mail address.Plesk Let's Encrypt certificate form
  5. Click Get It Free. The certificate is installed within 1–2 minutes.

Always opening the site with https

On the same page or under Hosting Settings, turn on Permanent SEO-safe 301 redirect from HTTP to HTTPS. If you use WordPress, check under Settings > General that the site address starts with https://.

Certificate could not be issued
The domain does not point to the webevi server yet. Wait for DNS propagation and try again.
