Once you've installed an SSL certificate for your website, it's likely that you'll want all of your website visitors to access your website through a secure HTTPS connection.
You can force an HTTPS connection by inserting the following code into the .htaccess file of your website's root directory:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
