SSL Certificate Type Selection

The choice of SSL certificate type should be based on the needs of your website and the services you provide to your users. Here are the features and selection criteria of different types of SSL certificates:

Domain Validation (DV) SSL Certificates:

It provides a basic level of security.
It has a quick and easy verification process.
It does not authenticate personal or corporate identity, only the domain name.
Suitable for blogs, personal sites and small businesses.
It is low cost.
Organization Validation (OV) SSL Certificates:

Suitable for medium-sized businesses and e-commerce sites.
The cost is higher than DV certificates.
Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificates:

It provides the highest level of security.
Requires the most extensive authentication process.
The security indicator with a green bar appears in browsers.
It is suitable for large businesses, financial institutions and e-commerce sites.
It costs more than other types.
Wildcard SSL Certificates:

It is a single certificate that also covers subdomains.
Useful for securing multiple subdomains.
For example, it includes subdomains such as blog.yoursite.com, shop.yoursite.com.
These types of certificates can be preferred instead of obtaining separate certificates for each subdomain.
Multi-Domain (UCC/SAN) SSL Certificates:

It can host multiple different domains on the same certificate.
Useful when you have different domains or subdomains.
Suitable for businesses with multiple websites or services.
The type of SSL certificate you choose may vary depending on the purpose of your website, its size, security needs and your budget. For example, if you are an e-commerce site and are processing customer information, you may prefer OV or EV certificates, which provide higher security. For blogs or personal websites, DV certificates may be sufficient.
