A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is required when you would like to acquire an SSL certificate that will encode all the payment and account info that are exchanged between your site and its visitors. The CSR contains info about the website plus its owner in Base64-encoded form - web address, physical address and e-mail, company name and unit, and the like. Based on this code, an authorized SSL vendor provides you with the certificate, that is digitally signed with the vendor's private key in order to identify that they are a dependable issuer. Throughout the CSR generation, a unique private key is also created and the set up of the SSL involves all of the four codes - both the keys, the certificate plus the CSR. After that, you can use a URL starting with https:// for your site rather than http:// and the site visitors will be able to view the information that you have provided for the CSR via their Internet browsers.
