Howdy,

KnownHost, https://www.knownhost.com supports Let's Encrypt on all platforms and has fully supported it on shared hosting for a while as well as the default choice.

More Info: Shared & Reseller Hosting - KnownHost

at https://supporthost.com we offer full support to Let's Encrypt, would love to be added to the list here: Web Hosting who support Let's Encrypt

Let's Encrypt certificate is automatically generated once the domain points to our servers, of course we cannot enforce the redirect, that is the client's responsibility since they create their own websites and configure as they please.

If you're controlling the certificates installation, why not the redirect too? Seems to me you have access to the webserver, at least on shared hosting. For services like VPS I assume you don't get certificates too, so I assume we're talking about shared hosting here to begin with?

Usually the redirect is done at the webserver level using the HTTP Location header, not necessarily the "website" level.

I probably used bad wording.

We do not like enforcing anything to the clients.

So while we create the Let's Encrypt certificate automatically, the client is free to decide not to use it, or to use a paid certificate according to his/her needs.

We could enforce https? Sure. Not only on shared, but also on managed VPS (with our managed VPS we don't give root access, so for the client the level of support and service is the same as a shared hosting). But I personally love freedom, and try to enforce the minimum possible on our clients

Hello there,

At Konet, konet.gr, we have been supporting the use of Let's Encrypt SSL Certificates on all platforms and all hosting plans for at least 5 years now. Moreover, in the Windows Hosting plans we use only the Let's Encrypt certificate unless a client wants to use a purchased one. The link to our KB which refers to the subject can be found here.

PS: The KB article is in Greek but says what i described above.

Recently got a web hosting for customer with https://www.webhostinguk.com they do offer free Letencrypt on all there web hosting plans ..they have listed letsencrypt as a feature offered on : https://www.webhostinguk.com/web-hosting/
You can as Web hosting UK to list of providers.

Hey all!

I like to ask if it is possible to add my website also to the list. We offer Let's Encrypt SSL Certificates from the beginning.

The site is https://www.host-age.ro and a tutorial about the free SSL is here https://www.host-age.ro/intrebari-frecvente/certificate-ssl/generare-certificat-ssl/

Thank you!
Greetings

WiexonHost Provides Pure NVMe SSD Web Hosting. Also, Provide Lifetime free SSL certificates for All domains.

Do we want to keep that list alive? unlike 2015 nowadays about random Cpanel host will support https and that list is grow out of bound: visiting random ones it looks like some of them are sold to different host and redirected to them or bankrupted and redirected to domain parking page (like https://www.ngagehosting.uk/) unless we really maintain the list and remove dead/sold ones it would look like rusty ad banner on wall of abandoned building

Should we start verifying these claims? Should Let's Encrypt verify them, for a charge? :smiling_imp:

I have been maintaining the list for the last few years but due to health issues (not to worry, nothing too serious), I have been quite disconnected from the community.

Anyway, I agree with @orangepizza, this list made sense some years ago but today, in 2023, in my opinion, it doesn't make sense to keep maintaining it (it looks like a showcase for SEO). If a hosting company does not provide certificates to their customers, that company does not have much future in the business. If those certificates are free and from Let's Encrypt, perfect, if those certificates are not free and/or are not from Let's Encrypt, the customer has the responsibility to accept or not those conditions.

That said, hi everyone :wink:

Cheers,

Hi @schoen, @StopSpazzing, and community volunteers - Please could you add Domains.co.za (https://www.domains.co.za/) to the hosting provider list, as we are a hosting provider supporting Let's Encrypt and using it for the SSL attached to hosting plans offered. Thank you.

I've been an advocate to kill the list and this thread for several years for the reasons you disclosed. As long as the list exists, it will constantly generate requests for inclusion.

Offering LetsEncrypt certificates should be the status quo. If hosting providers want to be on a list, they should consider this one: Current Sponsors and Funders - Let's Encrypt

Getting older sucks. I hope your issues stabilize and you can enjoy some sort of better normalcy.
