If you've bought an SSL certificate, you can display a site seal on your Web pages. A site seal lets your visitors know that information they send through your website, such as payment or contact information, is secure.
There are two ways you can add a site seal to your Web pages: You can insert a site seal using a menu in the Page Designer. Website Builder automatically detects an SSL you associate with your domain.
Or add a site seal by retrieving the HTML from the SSL in your account, and then pasting it into content blocks where you want it to display. You may find this method useful if you're confident that you can edit the HTML to adjust how your site seal displays.
Website Builder automatically detects an SSL you purchased, letting you add it in the Page Designer.
