Paid SSL certificates offer:
* Longer validity (1 year vs. 3 months), reducing the hassle of frequent renewals.
* Enhanced validation options like EV and OV, which provide greater trust and credibility.
* Priority customer support and warranties for added protection.
* Stronger encryption, providing more robust security for your website and users

A DV (Domain Validated) SSL certificate is the most basic type of SSL certificate. It verifies only the ownership of the domain and provides encryption to secure data. DV SSL certificates are issued quickly and are ideal for blogs, personal websites, and informational sites that don’t handle sensitive data.

An OV (Organization Validated) SSL certificate validates both domain ownership and the legitimacy of the organization behind the site. OV SSL certificates offer a higher level of trust than DV SSLs, displaying the organization’s name in the certificate details. They are commonly used by businesses that want to prove their identity but don’t require the extensive validation of an EV SSL.

An EV (Extended Validation) SSL certificate provides the highest level of trust and security. It requires rigorous validation of the organization behind the website, including verifying legal and physical information. Websites with EV SSL show the organization’s name in the browser’s address bar, offering a visual cue that the site is highly trusted and secure.

* DV SSL: Validates only domain ownership.
* OV SSL: Validates domain ownership and the organization’s identity.
* EV SSL: Provides the highest level of validation by thoroughly verifying the organization’s legal, physical, and operational existence.

* DV SSL is ideal for personal websites or blogs that don’t require extensive validation.
* OV SSL is great for businesses that need to prove their identity and build trust without needing the highest level of validation.
* EV SSL is best for e-commerce sites or websites handling sensitive information, as it provides maximum trust and security by showing the company name in the browser’s address bar.
