How do I get a free SSL certificate for a domain alias?
The short answer is that we don't support SSL certificates for aliases. However, you can still totally get this done. Here's how:
- If you already set up your alias domain in another web site, remove it.
- Create a new web site via the https://dashboard.brownrice.com using the domain that you were going to set up as an alias.
- Edit the document root of the new web site so that it points back to the orginal web site.
- Done!
- Wait about 10 minutes and your alias domain will receive an SSL certificate but will show the content of your original web site.
