GODADDY CPANEL SETUP WIZARD

Fewer manual steps to get CertSage ready.

Confirm your hosting paths, download official CertSage 3.3.1, and let the helper prepare its configuration locally in your browser. No hand-editing PHP or creating an empty private folder first. You upload the prepared file and continue with CertSage, which handles certificate requests and installation.

Safety rule: Never paste your cPanel password, CertSage password, account key, certificate private key, or other secret into this wizard.

About this wizard

What it does. This wizard prepares the official CertSage tool for GoDaddy cPanel shared hosting. It confirms your hosting paths and configures the CertSage download locally in your browser — no hand-editing PHP files and no creating the private folder yourself. You then upload the prepared file and continue inside CertSage, which handles the certificate request and installation.

Who it is for. GoDaddy shared-hosting website owners who want a free SSL certificate without learning server administration first.

When to use it. After you've run the SSL Checker on your domain and know what state it's in. If the whole process is new to you, try Practice Mode first.

How it works. Short step-by-step questions guide you through. All the file preparation happens in your own browser — your file is never uploaded to EasySSLSetup, and CertSage's branding, notices, and functionality stay exactly as the official tool provides them.

What it does not do. It does not install the certificate itself, does not change your hosting account, and never sees or stores your cPanel password, CertSage password, account keys, or certificate private keys. Those stay on your own hosting account.
