Is your site still showing the padlock?

The padlock in the browser is what stops a browser calling your site Not Secure. It comes from a certificate (the SSL certificate) that runs out on a date, and when it does, visitors see a warning instead of your site. Enter your domain and we read yours live: when it expires, who issued it, and whether browsers actually trust it.

Just the domain. No https:// needed.

Questions

The padlock, answered

How do I check if my website is still showing the padlock?

Enter your domain above. We open a real connection to your server, read the certificate it presents, and report who issued it, when it runs out, which names it covers, and whether a browser would actually accept it. A certificate can look valid and still be rejected because it was set up for a different name.

What happens when the certificate runs out?

Every visitor gets a full-screen browser warning saying your site may be unsafe. Most people leave at that screen. It is one of the few website faults that takes a site from working to unusable in a single minute, with no warning sign beforehand.

Whose job is it to renew this?

Usually your hosting company or your web person, and usually it renews automatically. The failure is almost never the certificate itself. It is an automatic renewal that quietly stopped working months ago. That is why checking it directly, like this, beats assuming.

Is this the same check the paid report runs?

Identical. It is literally the same code. The €79 Website Health Report runs this check plus roughly twenty others: how long a phone waits for your site, whether your emails arrive, buttons and forms that lead nowhere, and what Google is told about your business.
