18) When I try to log in to the control panel of my website I receive a certificate warning. Why is this warning displayed and how can I fix it?

This warning is shown because your site is hosted on a shared server and the security certificate was created for the host name and not for your domain name. When you try to access the control panel of your site your web browser notices that the name on certificate and the domain name does not match and the warning is coming up. The security certificate warning does not affect the connection which is still secure so you can continue to log in and, depending on your browser, you can add an exception and the warning will not show up next time.
