This topic provides answers to common questions about SSL certificate expiration and renewal.
Why is my website still accessible after the SSL certificate expires?
When an SSL certificate expires, your website remains accessible because certificate expiration does not block network connections. However, browsers display a "Not Secure" warning to visitors.
Certificate expiration does not affect HTTP access, but HTTPS access is marked as insecure. HTTP and HTTPS operate independently, so users can choose to access your site via either protocol.
We recommend applying for a new certificate and replacing the expired one promptly to eliminate the security warning.
Is the SSL certificate renewal price consistent with the purchase price?
The renewal price for an SSL certificate is generally consistent with the original purchase price. The specific price is subject to the display in the SSL Certificates Service console.
Are there any discounts for SSL certificate renewal?
There are currently no discounts available for SSL certificate renewal. The specific price is subject to the display on the purchase page.
