To check if your SSL certificate is working properly, start by visiting your website in a browser. Look for the padlock icon in the address bar—this indicates that the connection is encrypted and your SSL certificate is active. Also, make sure your website URL begins with https:// rather than http://. The “s” stands for “secure” and confirms that SSL is in use.

For a more thorough check, you can use online SSL verification tools, which analyze your certificate and highlight any issues with installation, expiration, or configuration.
