A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is required when you wish to acquire an SSL certificate which will encrypt all of the payment and login info that will be exchanged between your site and its users. The CSR contains information about the website and its owner in Base64-encoded form - website address, physical address and email, company name and unit, etc. Based on this code, a certified SSL vendor issues the certificate, that's digitally signed with the vendor's private key to recognize that they are a dependable issuer. Throughout the CSR generation, a unique private key is also created and the installation of the SSL involves all 4 codes - both the keys, the certificate as well as the CSR. After that, you will be able to use a URL starting with https:// for your site instead of http:// and the website visitors will be able to view the info that you have provided for the CSR using their web browsers.
