How to create HTTPS and SSL for a Webflow site

Question

Accepted Answer

For a Webflow site, creating HTTPS and SSL is largely automatic and handled by Webflow itself. You generally do not need to manually generate CSRs, purchase, or install SSL certificates. Webflow integrates free SSL via Amazon CloudFront and Let's Encrypt, automatically provisioning it for your custom domain once connected and published. To ensure secure browsing, always go to your Project Settings > Hosting tab and enable the "Force HTTPS" option. This crucial step redirects all HTTP traffic to HTTPS, enhancing your site's security, SEO, and user trust. Simply connect your custom domain and publish your site, and Webflow takes care of the rest, making SSL setup incredibly straightforward.
