<seo title="How to use the Free Shared SSL Certificate" metakeywords="shared ssl,shared ssl certificate,free ssl" metadescription="How to use the Free Shared SSL Certificate" /><div align=justify>You can use the shared SSL Certificate for your site by following the below link:

'''''https://servername/~username.'''''

In the above example you should replace ''"servername"'' with the actual name of the server your account is hosted on and ''"username"'' with your cPanel username.

Please note that there is the data limitations set for the Shared SSL Certificate; in order to prevent abuse by others using the free SSL, any embedded data (images, audio clips, etc) larger than 100kb will be cut off. This limit is set per file, not per total page size. Due to this, some images on your site may not load or load just partially with free SSL certificate (especially when using large images).

In case you experience problems with partial loading of your site when using the Shared SSL Certificate, try to do the following:

* Reduce the number of website images.
* Resize the images.
* Convert the images into a different format, such as ''.png'' or ''.gif.''

'''''Note:''''' If the issue with free SSL cert still persists, you'll likely need to purchase a private SSL certificate and a Dedicated IP address.</div><br>
