Set up SiteLock Trust Seal

In this guide, we show how to add the Sitelock Trust Seal to a website made with Website Builder. The seal is a badge that tells your visitors that your site is secure.

If SiteLock detects a security problem on your site, you have 72 hours to solve the issue. If it isn't resolved within that time, the seal will be removed.

Note: Adding the SiteLock Trust Seal requires the code component, which is available in our Website Builder tiers Premium and Business + E-commerce. If you wish to upgrade, you can find the instructions here.

Before you can add the SiteLock Seal to your website, you need to activate a SiteLock subscription. If you haven't done this yet, check the guide:


Step 1 - Open the SiteLock dashboard

  1. Log in to the one.com Control Panel and click Security & Compliance > Website security in the menu on the left.
  2. Next, click Open dashboard.
