SSL and HTTP to HTTPS

I need to turn on the SSL and redirect HTTP to HTTPS to avoid a NOT SECURE warning on my websites. I tried with http://dougshear.com. When I click on Activate SSL it gives me the following message: Domain cant be verified as it doesn't exist on builder. I have looked at some community messages regarding this, and it is above my pay grade. So how can I find someone, I will pay them, to remove this problem. The websites have been with Homestead for decades. Fastest way to contact me is dougshear8000@gmail.com.

If your website is built with the desktop version of Sitebuilder, you're probably out of luck. If it's built with SiteBuilder Plus, there's a solution.

You can SSL your Sitebuilder Plus website by following this article:

Thank you for responding. I am only aware of one version of SiteBuilder, which I have used for years. I will take a look at the article, but probably need a Homestead expert to make any significant changes.

I thought I responded, but don't see it, so apologies if this is a repeat. Thank you for responding to my problem. I really need someone to fix this issue. Don't know if I am using SiteBuilder Plus or not. Do you know how I can find someone to fix this?

@bob8709​ Homestead will setup the ssl for free. Call them on Monday.

You can follow the instructions if you'd like to set it up yourself. It's fairly easy.
