How to implement SSL on a website?

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a technology used to secure and encrypt the connection between a website and its users. To implement SSL on a website, the first step is to obtain an SSL certificate from a trusted certificate authority. Once the certificate is acquired, it needs to be installed on the web server. This can be done by web hosting providers or through the server's control panel. After the SSL certificate is installed, the website's URL needs to be updated to use HTTPS instead of HTTP. This will ensure that users are accessing the website using an SSL-secured connection. Lastly, any mixed content warnings or errors should be fixed. This process may involve updating internal links and content such as images, scripts, and stylesheets to use HTTPS instead of HTTP.
