Why do I get "Common name mismatch" error in my browser?

The "Common Name Mismatch" error appears when the domain name on the SSL certificate does not exactly match the URL in the browser address bar .

  • Example: If your certificate is issued for example.com but you are visiting blog.example.com.
  • How to fix: Ensure you are using the correct certificate for the specific domain. If you have multiple subdomains, we recommend using a Hostaday Wildcard SSL or a Multi-Domain SSL to cover all your variations under one certificate.
