Standard single SSL certificates secure a single domain (both WWW and non-WWW) and come available in Domain Validation (DV), Organization Validation (OV) & Extended Validation (EV) options. Single SSL certificates can also secure an individual sub-domain, hostname, IP address, or mail server
Domain Validated (DV) SSL certificates is the most basic and easiest to validate using a single step to verify the person or organization who owns the registered domain
To complete the validation, the domain owner must prove that they own the domain that was submitted with the order
